The copper plating over the zinc core was stretched to the breaking point and separated. The zinc core may start to break down with further exposure to the elements. Some coins like this corrode to the point of sections of the coin breaking off or leaving the remaining copper hallow. You may want to keep it as a nice study example, but if not, spend it before it disappears! ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Edited by Yokozuna 11/25/2020 07:13 am Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/25/2020 10:16 am On the date area, it is showing DDD (Die-Deterioration-Doubling). The split plating is a striking issue and the DDD is a die aging issue. Neither are worth a premium. In fact the time clock is counting down on the split plating example. On the Mintmark, that is showing also split plating, not a RPM. So three strikes and this ones out of here. Put it back to work. Report this Post to the Staff
