<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bogsnj, post: 114852, member: 4952&quot;]I am looking at a 1944 lincoln penny that struck me as odd. It appears that the die is artificial or some type of spray paint. It seems way too bright to be a penny let alone 60 years old. Is it common for a 44 to be painted over? Thats what my conclusion has come to be, but i have also noticed that in the scrtaches their appears to be no alteration in color. </p><p><br /></p><p>I know i dont have a pic.... i am working on it but im not guarenteeing anything.</p><p><br /></p><p>So as a result i will ask a more general question for pennys, </p><p>is it common to paint over pennies, and if so how would i detect if it is painted over[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
