Message:: [QUOTE="paddyman98, post: 2083112, member: 44615"]Hello Amanda, I actually saw the first report when it was televised and at the end of the report I sat on my sofa shaking my head no, no, NO! Being a collector and searching for the 43 copper and 44 steel myself, the first thing I thought was they did not explain the differences in these 2 cents. I laughed and thought that maybe nobody would care of such a prize. Now reading this post and seeing the other 2 reports that were televised I'm just dumbfounded about a simple word that could of been used to better correct and explain the misunderstanding. The 2 guys especially James kept referring to the 1944 steel cent in Spanish as only being valuable if it were "metal".. in English metal is translated "metal" <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie20" alt=":banghead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. The correct definition should of been "Acero" which translates to the word "steel". So they continued to give the wrong explanation and probably continued to confuse the hispanic viewers! They should of simply explained that the 1944 steel just like the 1943 steel were made of "acero" and that they were both magnetic! Hope to hear from you <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
