    It would be a good candidate for use in an elongated penny press. Copper cents work much better thank zinc.

    Let's suppose that the coin was dropped in the Mint's parking lot while it was being loaded for shipment to one of the Federal Reserve Banks. Do you think it should be considered a Mint error? ~ Chris

    Welcome to CT @Regina D Mcmullen. As stated, that coin is totally PMD and looks like it was in the road for a long time. Too bad for a wheat back. And thank you for posting the photos Full Image, even if the close ups don't need enlarging.
