Sheila New Member United States 14 Posts	Posted 07/31/2017 1:49 pm I know it is not copper. I am just trying to figure out what makes it so over weight. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/31/2017 1:56 pm Possible thicker planchet, double plating or debris on coin. Looks like it was in a parking lot for a time. Maybe something like a small stone was pressed into the coin? But with the damage, it cancels all premium for it. spendable. Report this Post to the Staff
