Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 07/26/2017 5:45 pm We really need to start refering to these as "Plating Blisters". There really is an error "Gas Bubble" which happens on copper cents and is trapped gas in the alloy. Then there is "Subsurface corrosion" which will look similar, it is an upward push of corroding metal that when popped leaves craters. Here is Subsurface corrosion= If you were to collapse this, a chasm would show. We do see this on Zincolns too. Report this Post to the Staff
garys64wildcat Pillar of the Community United States 593 Posts	Posted 07/26/2017 8:13 pm That's a cool error. But with the Zincolns there will be a lot of errors due the zinc plated with copper in the future or rotted out examples Report this Post to the Staff
