Spence Moderator United States 34458 Posts	Posted 05/13/2022 4:13 pm Hmm looks like the zinc core is exposed in multiple areas. That may be preferentially corroded and therefore the letters are becoming incuse. This would be a spender for me.

Like it was intentionally indented (carefully) and moving the metal to the edges of each letter/number. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
