<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kimster, post: 1126326, member: 29093&quot;]Here&#039;s my guess. Someone soldered small pieces of copper wire on a 1971, D penny for some unknown reason. I saw the solder on the coin when sorting out the zinc and copper after cleaning (I don&#039;t look at the dates, because the difference between copper and zinc is so obvious after cleaning), and assumed it was copper plated zinc with the zinc showing throuth after cleaning. What I thought was zinc was solder. Mystery solved.&nbsp; :smile[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
