Is it because it was supposed to be struck on copper/bronze? So is it the same with the 1943 as well? If it were to be struck on copper/bronze?&nbsp; I did not get in to coinage until my mentor handed me an 1817 penny, which I have posted in one of the threads, I took good care of him for he was one of my patients in hospice care, he is no longer with us but he left me as he would say “the ugly of the bunches” he blessed his family with coins in books, cases, and he blessed me with a few coins including this one here, the late 1800 nickel that you can barely see what is suppossd to be there when it was struck, and a few wheat pennies that looks like it has been painted... but it isnt painted for he was very passionate in collecting coins... funny story is, after he had blessed me with the bunches of uglies, one of his grandsons who felt offended with being blessed wih the ugly bunches, asked me if I liked coins, and I said yes, and got his share, and his share did not have american coins in it, but old coins from other countries, one to be as old as 20-40ad, and pennies from other countries. Which I am very thankful for. This all happened late last year... my penny pinching started this year, when a good friend of mine sold one of his recent pennies for a good pocket change, (18,000+) worth of pocket change, and it all happened and started then... Since then, I had been going along my pincher system where I would get 4000 pennies each week, since January 2018, and my collection has gotten healthier and with that being said, I believe that every coin is different, none will be the same, and from what I have noticed from the selling standpoint is that the uglier, the more the mistakes (from mint), the more it is worth... And that is all i had been going for, the beauty within the ugly ones. Thank you to those who are not too shy to give their two cents, those who correct, and those who shows the way to wherever a coin collector is aiming to go with his coins. I have 8 of these 1943 coins 19 copper 44 and 1 steel 44 atm... 3 rows of ugly&nbsp; 1909 - 58, 2 1909 indian heads, and missing a 1891 indian head to complete my indian head collection...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
