Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74915 Posts	Posted 02/19/2018 6:51 pm To CCF! Not struck on a Dime planchet. It is Post Mint Damage meaning it happened after it got out of the Mint. It looks like it got grinded down by a belt sander or with a buffer. It doesn't really matter on how and why it happened, but it is Post Mint Damage. Worth face value, but you may keep it if you like Errers and Varietys.

still lookin Pillar of the Community 967 Posts	Posted 02/19/2018 8:13 pm The cents from mid 1982 are a zinc core with copper plating. What you are seeing is the zinc core where the copper plating has been ground off. Still Lookin Report this Post to the Staff

pchesels New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 02/20/2018 7:06 pm I agree but looking at the side of the Coin it looks like the planchet is half silver and half copper. When I scrape the side of a Zincoln I get all silver planchet under the copper coating. Comparing coin to Dime it is larger and appears to be same size a penny. Report this Post to the Staff
