Hello! I need help please. I found this 1969 D penny and it looks different than any of the others I have seen, It almost sparkles. I let the lady at the jewelry repair locally look to see if it had been altered and she said no, no spray paint, etc. Do you know anything about this coin? The date and mint marks are very weak. Does anyone know what the coin type is on this penny?
