John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 02/28/2024 08:22 am Mike, That's what I thought but I am no pro. Could you elaborate a bit on "This is an example of pre-strike, post-plating planchet damage. Completely different from a case of incomplete electroplating." Thank you.

mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2739 Posts	Posted 02/28/2024 08:28 am With incomplete electroplating, the cent planchet emerges from the electroplating bath with an incomplete layer of copper plating. In the case of pre-strike, post-plating damage, the cent planchet starts out with a complete covering of copper plating. Some mishap later scrapes off part of the plating before the planchet enters the coining press. Error coin writer and researcher. Report this Post to the Staff
RW1010 Pillar of the Community United States 1207 Posts	Posted 02/28/2024 09:42 am Thanks mikediamond for the info. I don't want to hijack coinhusker26s thread with my bad photos. I'll start my own with better pics. It could be damage but I think better pics are needed to see the similarities Report this Post to the Staff
