I3lackMage New Member United States 14 Posts	Posted 01/18/2019 08:42 am I recently inherited a tin full of older pennies from my deceased grandfather, and while going through them I stumbled onto this oddity. I am not getting my Hope's up, but, it would be nice to gather some second opinions or thoughts. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3677 Posts	Posted 01/18/2019 9:21 pm An incredible number of 1974-D cents apparently were chromed by a plating company for a trade show in Denver. We received them in change at least weekly for better than a year. Report this Post to the Staff
