The lighter color we are seeing is the underlying zinc showing through. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Dearborn Moderator United States 99460 Posts	Posted 09/17/2025 07:35 am to CCF. It looks like the correct planchet was used in a bezel as stated, but it is now very damaged, the rims and some of the high points of the reverse was sanded or ground off somehow, That accounts for the slightly light weight of it and the silvery appearance of the zinc core. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25923 Posts	Posted 09/17/2025 10:15 am I agree with JimmyD - this coin was removed from a bezel or was encased. Note the flattening of the rim on both sides. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
