<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coinman1234, post: 2044241, member: 51208&quot;]Lincoln cents before 1993 were struck on higher relief dies which would wear out quicker and some zinc plated coins struck by those dies would look kind of wavy due to the softer zinc quickly changing shape when struck trapped inside of the copper shell, that is why coins now are low relief. Another big factor is that on older zinc cents, they were bad at plating them so that would also make the planchet look wavy. That coin does not have any premium over one cent. When the planchet gets a wavy like surface some lettering may stretch.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
