Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 4:47 pm I see a very rusted environmentally dug up coin of most likely steel based content with the zinc coating long since worn off, a semblance of a D mintmark and the shape of a 1943 worn date that will 100% guaranteed be attracted to a magnet. Sounds like a good candidate for a replating... Report this Post to the Staff

IF it were a 1943 Copper, I doubt any of the third part grading services would authenticate it. It would be nearly impossible to know if it were genuine or a counterfeit.

brockh584 New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 6:32 pm It looks like a 1943 but doesn't look like metal so my other guess is a 44 or 42. Report this Post to the Staff
