In the future, please crop and correctly orient images before uploading. * I am looking to better understand if the coin on the right is an error. I do not have a scale but it does feel like there is a slight weight difference but can't confirm. The coins were handed down so I can't rule out that it was not cleaned but it's not the color of coins I've seen cleaned. I've added another 1890 Penny for a better visualization of the coin's color. Overall, I'm wondering if my hunch has merit to it. Edited by PhilFloki 01/22/2026 5:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff
