HeatherM New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 12:19 pm I have obtained a penny with questionable markings. The D mint mark is punched in excessively, as well as around the top part of Lincolns face. Could this be a mint error? Thanks for all the suggestions.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62062 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 12:24 pm Damage to the coin will remove the plating, thus you are seeing the gray zinc layer under the plating. Once the zinc is exposed, then zinc rot starts. Damage is always a spender on a coin. Eventually these coins will go away as more oxygen affects the zinc planchets. Acids will speed up the process. But the coin is now counting down its days. Richard S. Cooper Some have asked about my images I use and I'm glad to say, you can now you can see the DVD in sections on youtube: 1.

arby96 Pillar of the Community United States 1998 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 1:00 pm Coop strikes again, great educational information with photos. I dislike these Zinc Cents. They are the worst material ever used in my opinion. Thanks Coop for the information. "LOVE THE HUNT!" Report this Post to the Staff

Jester Valued Member United States 207 Posts	Posted 03/31/2023 4:33 pm Coop, that is some great information. Too bad the mint made its own biodegradable coins..... Report this Post to the Staff
