Coppergold Pillar of the Community United States 939 Posts	Posted 04/03/2018 03:01 am If it's not that then it could be a rolled thick planchet.. idk if my eyes are playing tricks on me but the rim looks to be a little weak starting from liberty going to bust. Better picture of obverse and reverse would definitely make it interesting Report this Post to the Staff

Try weighing it in the middle and on the edge to see if it makes a difference. Hopefully you beat the odds. Wouldn't that be sweet! Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 04/05/2018 01:06 am We're pulling for you, but want to make sure you won't be wasting money by getting it authenticated! I believe better pics will help, because it could be a thick zinc planchet. It seems to have that copper-plated "look" to it. As far as weighing near the edge, I have not noticed a difference with the cheap digital scale I have as to where the coin is placed. If nothing can be decided here, it may be worth a shot to send to ANACS to see what they say.
