I was getting change out of an old change jar when I came across this 1955 Wheat penny. My photos aren't really showing the color accurately. It is actually more the color of a shiny Chuck E. Cheese token! It's not at all magnetic. ]Anybody know anything about it?

to CCF.Always nice to have a female join our club. Your coin looks to be plated with gold.No added value I am afraid.

Hello and welcome to this great forum. Some coins that you see that way were often done by high school kids as part of a science experiment. That is also one explanation. I know I once did the same when in high school. I hope you find something interesting soon. I hope this also helps you.
Rest in Peace

with John 1. Still a neat find. Some sort of promotional gimmick.
