WHCII New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 04/04/2012 08:57 am Hello everyone, I am new to the community and as a coin collector so please forgive me if this isn't in the right 'forum'. I have a 2006 penny. It is silver in color, no mint mark and is magnetic. I read a previous post by "1945V" stating that this particular one is the "holy grail" of these pennies. Can anyone elaborate as to the rarity or value? Thanks for any help. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/05/2012 5:22 pm I see it's not Canadian. Looks like it may be an unplated coin. Better photos would be great. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

Coppertop Valued Member United States 275 Posts	Posted 04/10/2012 02:26 am it could be plated post mint, or be unplated from the mint. It shouldn't be magnetic(so that intrigues) me unless it was some sort of experimental planchet, which I'm unaware they were doing this year. It is most likely fake, but larger pictures would help.

WHCII New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 04/10/2012 4:11 pm I will take more pic's this evening. I've had two 'coin dealers' look at it so far and their baffled as well. Report this Post to the Staff

WHCII New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 04/12/2012 2:28 pm This is as good a close up as I could get with out it starting to look blurry. What appears to be scratches on the front is actually the plastic from the protector I have it in. I showed this penny to some one yesterday that 'dabbles' in coins. He had not seen one before then but assured me that it was not 'plated' due to it being to crisp in all the right places. I know it doesn't look like it in the pic's but it is 'shiney and silver in color'. Thanks to all that's trying to help. WHC. Report this Post to the Staff
