HyerJK Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 11/04/2023 8:18 pm I had a feeling something was off with it. Thank you for your time. Have you ever seen a 43 steel penny with toning like that? Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/04/2023 8:41 pm Agree likely reprocessed with some undetermined environmental toning, just worth face value. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74776 Posts	Posted 11/04/2023 11:09 pm I agree. It's been reprocessed unfortunately. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19966 Posts	Posted 11/04/2023 11:59 pm The pics are out of focus, hard to see much. It's highly unusual for these to tone. The surfaces do not look re-plated to me. The coin appears to be MS, most of the re-plated coins are AU and lower in my experience. Without clearer pictures, it's hard to say much more.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18696 Posts	Posted 11/05/2023 10:07 am i don't know what happened to this coin but that color is not normal for a steelie. Report this Post to the Staff
HyerJK Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 11/07/2023 03:42 am Here is another pic of the obverse. Different lighting and clearer. Report this Post to the Staff
HyerJK Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 11/07/2023 03:46 am Something else I was curious about is the mint mark. Does it look like a D over D to anyone? Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 11/07/2023 05:40 am Going to need close up of mint mark to help. Here are the three sites we all need to check for a match:http://www.coppercoins.com/advsearch.php http://varietyvista.com/ http://doubleddie.com/ Let us know what you find out.

HyerJK Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 11/07/2023 1:49 pm Here are some better pics of the date. Report this Post to the Staff
HyerJK Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 11/07/2023 1:51 pm Looks like there might be some doubling of the date. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 11/07/2023 3:53 pm Not seeing a DDO or an RPM. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
HyerJK Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 11/07/2023 7:45 pm The backside of the 4. MD or doubling? Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19966 Posts	Posted 11/07/2023 11:02 pm Much better pictures, not re-plated IMO. I don't see the RPM either....it's actually a cool coin with that toning! How about a better picture of the reverse too? Lincoln Cent Lover!
