Welcome to the forum! I agree with John1, but baffled as to the purpose for plating it. Worth keeping as a conversation piece though.

The coin might have been light from being circulated and plating does not add much weight.

Looks like a case of a single plating on the coin. Leaving the surface rough, the surface may have been not prepared at all. The altered surface is not desired to a real coin collector.

PMD, but cool find. Keep it as a conversation piece for sure. Not like that is a big financial hit if you don't spend it.

thank you for your comments but your comments are different hypothesis of each person is nothing concrete he has a 1968-d and 1980 steel penny nobody talk about his so there is nothing official in the comments and I found this piece in 1991 worse not sure that someone is wasting time putting some cash down and that finally I find it in market on the edge of the beach, my cot file is not closed

I have a plated 1952 D LWC and even with the copper showing on the rim it is magnetic.

If you are going to doubt what everyone tells you the next step is write a check and send it to NGC.
