Drop it down lightly and hear the "Ding"
I have plenty of scrap silver coins to compare it with.
That coin was hardly in perfect nick to start with, it has attracted so much controversy since I got it - yet it is completely legit. At most someone has altered it.

PaddyB - I assume your 1933 penny is a replica! Or is it in the same category as my 1961 halfpenny?

Yes - a replica I assume. It turned up in a box of very cheap foreign coins, but gave me a jump when I spotted it. Good conversation piece.
