<p>[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 485782, member: 5233"]I think this was plated with something. When I was in high school we did a plating experiment with a Lincoln cent and zinc. We stripped the zinc off a galvanized nail and then plated it onto the cent. I seem to remember I was surprised when they ended up a tinted yellow rather than a silvery color. I assumed it was due to impurities.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
