CPChicago Valued Member United States 185 Posts	Posted 11/08/2007 9:55 pm Hi all, I found this '82 (left is regular, right is what I found) while looking through a load of change. I'm looking at the lettering, how it's 'rolled' up to the edge. That elevated edge exists around the entire obverse. I don't think this is technically an error (please correct me if I'm wrong), but it's kind of cool. What do you think? Also, some plated Lincoln's that I've had for years. Just thought I'd share for the fun of it! Any value to these? I'll probably never get rid of the platers, as they're most likely worth a penny each, but if anybody is interested in the '82, please let me know. Report this Post to the Staff

bonham3 Valued Member United States 346 Posts	Posted 11/09/2007 12:44 am Hi I did a post a while back on a couple plated lincs. I had. They looked like zinc. but were mercury plated/dipped. Just an FYI. Your 64 could be one. The other one looks safe. Though not sure what the plating material is. That rim is pretty common on the zinc 80's cents. Report this Post to the Staff
