pipilo New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 01/17/2021 9:17 pm Found this silver colored penny in a parking lot. It's dated 2020 D. It is not magnetic so not steel and weighs 2.6 grams. With a magnifying glass I can see what I think is very thin areas of copper coloring around the top edges on both sides The side of the coin is silver colored all the way around. Has this coin been treated with something? Couldn't find where there were any issued like this last year? Report this Post to the Staff

If you found it in a parking lot then chances are it has been run over and kicked around scraping the copper plating off of it and exposing the zinc core (silver color) Report this Post to the Staff

pipilo New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 01/17/2021 11:14 pm will post better photos tomorrow with penny next to copper colored ones....only copper in this one are thin areas of it around the rim; camera not picking up real color well Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Pillar of the Community United States 4959 Posts	Posted 01/18/2021 01:10 am I think you are seeing the zinc below the thin copper plating. It looks in the photos you provided us to be the case. Cents since mid 82 are copper plated with zinc cores. The zinc is is the silver-ish grey colour found under the copper coating. ça va bien aller Report this Post to the Staff
pipilo New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 01/19/2021 7:20 pm Yes something or someone dissolved the copper plating I think showing the zinc underneath as you all say. Don't think the copper was knocked off from the parking lot though, the coin isn't banged up. Thank you all for your insight. Report this Post to the Staff
