<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 1283561, member: 26030&quot;]I just posted this on the New Acquisitions thread, but thought I would add it to this Lincolns thread.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been looking for a Mint State Steel Cent that shows some color for months with no luck.&nbsp; Then I saw that PCGS MS65 OGH 1943 Lincoln with very cool copper color showing through (esp on the obverse).&nbsp; When I first saw it I thought a bit of copper in the alloy didn&#039;t get mixed properly, but then I read there was no copper in these coins at all.&nbsp;&nbsp; The inner blank is pure steel, and the outer coating is zinc.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; In any case, I got this interesting Lincoln for the bargain price of $24.&nbsp; There is also a die crack around 10 o&#039;clock on the reverse.&nbsp; I think it&#039;s a pretty cool coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]142817.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
