coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/20/2016 8:43 pm Both are showing die wear towards the rim on the mint marks. If this cent re-processed? That enhances the die wear as well. On the 'S' mint one you can see the same die wear on the 4. Keep in mint the steel planchets make the dies wear a lot faster.

M_d_in_guy Pillar of the Community Canada 1049 Posts	Posted 04/20/2016 9:45 pm Thanks Coop, not sure if they are re-processed or not, I got a deal on 3 coinguard binders that were worked on filling for quite a few years, so not sure of their history. Fred felt they were either plating, mechanical or ejection doubling. That's a first I've ever heard about re-processed when you mentioned it, did some reading on it, thanks for all your info.
