<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1819259, member: 15199&quot;]I agree with the coin counter explanation.&nbsp; Copper coin alloy is much more workable than most would&nbsp; believe until they have tried it. It doesn&#039;t have to be loose, and&nbsp; experienced die worker or jewelers could change a date that only experienced individuals could notice, add such as V.D.B.&nbsp; on the back of a cent, etc. Imagine drilling a tiny hole in the edge of a cent, and inserting a tool and raising a mint mark , and then plugging the hole and very few noticing. Not saying this was changed by someone, just that it is a soft metal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
