sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21789 Posts	Posted 04/25/2023 04:37 am I strongly suspect that standard '43 zinc coated steel Cent, but copper plated. Very easy to do, in a high school lab or an equivalent 'shed job'. Accurate check for weight at around 2.75 grams for a 'shed job'. Standard Zn coated steel: 2.70 grams Standard bronze or brass Cents: 3.11 grams. I would expect no cigars after investigation this time, unfortunately. Report this Post to the Staff
