Mr. Diamond used one of my finds in his recent Collectors Clearinghouse articles for Coin World. The article was about cracked and peeling plating on cents from 1982 on. I was lucky that the unusual cracked plating of this 1989 cent fit his article. Many thanks Mr. Diamond !    |

So that rippling effect that was just asked about yesterday or day before is a cracked/stretched plating issue? Is this during plating itself and rolling of stock before blanking? (Don't have access to articles.)

Thanks all ! Crazyb0 , Other than it's not PSD and some of the deeper cracks go through the plating , the how and the why are still unknown. I sent the coin to Mr. Diamond because it was such a "unique", his term, form of cracked plating. Mine was one of four examples of plating errors shown in the article. I think your explanation on the previous post was a good one. |
