    1-1985 d obverse was wondering why the gouge or scratch spears to be copper coated? 2-1985 p IMG_20190219_190839.jpg IMG_20190219_195904.jpg IMG_20190219_190532.jpg IMG_20190219_190421.jpg IMG_20190219_191209.jpg IMG_20190219_191059.jpg wondering if the o in god is doubled die? I noticed going through 80s that there must be slot of misaligned die strikes because I found 3 out of like 200 coins. Last 2 pics are just because I think they are cool looking.

    All Cents minted after 1982 are zinc and have a thin layer of copper coating the zinc.

    So shouldn't I see the zinc in the gouge? That's why I found it odd that it appears copper. And I don't see how it could have possibly been there prior to coating.
