Would be my luck that I'd get rid of it and then find out that it was rare and valuable. Thank you for your time. Report this Post to the Staff

Or any other of the fracture looking lines for that matter. The one beside the I is raised and stops at the corner of the monument. Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15596 Posts	Posted 03/21/2023 1:43 pm That extended rim is interesting. We need better photos of that area - initial speculation same as JimmyD, this coin could have once been in a bezel. But why?

Don't do that in the future. I change my opinion to beat up junk coin. Spend it before it rots away. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 99364 Posts	Posted 03/22/2023 6:12 pm are you sure it is a zinc cent? I'm only seeing copper showing - even in the gouged areas. Also this is a small date cent.
