jbuck Moderator United States 189340 Posts	Posted 12/04/2014 10:36 am I think it is polished because I can see the copper core, which would be covered by most plating processes.

solotime Pillar of the Community United States 2311 Posts	Posted 12/07/2014 2:57 pm I agree with being polished. If you have a powerful magnet, you should try it out on the Ike dollar. (Just wondering something) Report this Post to the Staff
