Got a 1995-D, which is all silver color. Could be an incorrect planchet (I suppose, and hope) or just someone taking a spraycan to a penny. Pictures attached. Weight seems about right at 2.5g, but certainly looks like aluminum. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/27/2019 6:47 pm Well it wasn't struck looking like that. Altered coin. If it were an unplated cent, it would look more like this example: Note sheen, not shine like it was altered like your coin. Report this Post to the Staff
