Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5240 Posts	Posted 03/09/2018 09:47 am I have this 1958 D LWC that has a silver toning to it. I am sure this is some type of plating and if it was it was a long time ago. It rings like copper, is not magnetic, weighs 3.04 g and is the same thickness and diameter as a normal LWC. A curiosity to say the least. Report this Post to the Staff
