Repeat New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted Today 2H 15M ago Hey everyone, all I've been able to find out regarding this error is supposedly there's only like 30 known cases. I think my coin, oddly, might be one for a few different reasons but ultimately I need to find a XRF, but what do yall think? Standard 1919-P Wheat penny Weigh 3.11g Diameter 19-19.05mm Thickness 1.52-1.55mm My penny Weigh 3.04g Diameter 19mm Thickness 1.32-1.35mm The 1930 Penny is simply for comparison reference Report this Post to the Staff

henryvoight New Member United States 14 Posts	Posted Today 1H 52M ago From the information I can see online, the coin is slightly heavier (by 0.04g) and slightly thicker (by 0.02-5 mm) than a Argentine 10 Centavos, but I cant find information on whether or not this was within acceptable mint tolerances. From the picture I cant tell if its silver colored or yellowish. If its yellowish it might be acid dipped. Edited by henryvoight Today 1H 52M ago Report this Post to the Staff
mcshilling Pillar of the Community Canada 9787 Posts	Posted Today 39M ago Your 1919 has seen better days, it's wore down and has a lot of PMD, I don't think it is the Argentina version. Report this Post to the Staff
Repeat New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted Today 22M ago Henry Voight, unfortunately that yellowish is my ceiling light. And yes this coin has definitely seen better days. The thing that gets me is the thickness or rather how thin it is. Idk though, need to get it tested with a XRF. Would be pretty cool if it turns out to be one though. Report this Post to the Staff
