jokingjoker Pillar of the Community United States 2150 Posts	Posted 11/04/2011 6:50 pm I just noticed this on ebay and wanted to get thoughts. Says they sent it in to ICG and they wouldn't slab it. I got a chuckle out of the misspelling on the letter.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/ICG-Verifie..._1171wt_1396 Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 11/04/2011 10:57 pm No it would be smaller. A 90% silver planchet the same size as a cent planchet would weigh 3.53 grams. Report this Post to the Staff
chickenboy Valued Member United States 87 Posts	Posted 11/05/2011 12:31 am Believe it or not, smaller was in my head and it came out wrong. I was thinking that is silver it had to be similar to a dime size but the seller didn't talk about the size so it would turn me away without a comparrison pic next to a cent.

harrison2 Pillar of the Community Mexico 1304 Posts	Posted 11/05/2011 12:43 am I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. That looks like a thinner planchet, but a dime planchet is smaller than a penny planchet, but this has a full rim...something isn't right. I agree with the ICG, unknown planchet.
