Personally, I think a person has to pursue an answer to be sure, one way or the other. Glad there are fellow enthusiasts willing to share time/equipment/expertise to steepen the learning curve and arrive at answers.
Better luck next time pennyman!

pennyman want to see my 5 cent coin struck with copper contamination? Mine has kinda special twist. Is struck on 10 cent planchet. Total weight is 2.5 not 2.1. That much copper.

Maybe this one is remotely close.  45 min in acetone did nothing.. I made darn sure this time. I've never been to sure what to think of this one. Its magnetic but the center of the queens face where all the crud is isn't. 2006-P      |

That is cool nickelsguy! I actually like the missing copper on both sides because it helps tell the story. Just don't lose any more :)
