Bob Levi Valued Member Canada 488 Posts	Posted 10/07/2014 12:32 am Just looking for some help with this penny. Noticed the line through cents, Then noticed what looks like a button on his shoulder. As always any thoughts would be appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2519 Posts	Posted 10/07/2014 01:58 am I'm not very familiar with zincoln problems but I think this one's just a gas bubble under the plating AKA blistered plating. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/08/2014 02:07 am Yes, it is a linear plating bubble on the reverse. (You could flatten it pressing it down.) The obverse some more images might help. Is this a peeling of the plating? Is this a Cud? Can't really tell from the image provided. Report this Post to the Staff
Bob Levi Valued Member Canada 488 Posts	Posted 10/08/2014 02:19 am Ill work on a better pic. Think the rim is peeling. Maybe PMD. I'm looking at the little dot on his shoulder. It almost looks like a small d or similar to the button on his jacket. Maybe took a hit but area around it is lower than the rest of the shoulder which I thought odd. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/08/2014 02:45 am That is just a spot that is showing split plating. The zinc starts to react with the air and starts rising. (Possible needle poke on that side that split the plating?) Report this Post to the Staff
