<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ambro, post: 314926, member: 11143&quot;]Might be viable, main problem with the 43&#039;s was that they plated the steel, then stamped the planchets, so the edges were &#039;raw&#039;. That was the open door for corrosion. Looks like they have overcome that with the zinkers, since the copper plates all the way around. Copper does form a good bond with steel, when antique auto bumpers are rechromed, they are taken to raw steel, then copper plated, which forms a footing for the chrome.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I just want to see that &#039;billy mays&#039; beard gone from abe and the ol&#039; original 09 head put back. Steel took a good impression, but I have heard it was tough on the coining machinery.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
