Chavez Valued Member United States 252 Posts	Posted 05/30/2018 08:01 am Folks, pulled this last night. I was able to get some decent closeups on my work microscope. Wondering if this brings some value since there are some letters and numbers on it. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21633 Posts	Posted 05/30/2018 08:28 am Looks like someone has ground the relief of the coin down. Possibly trying to make a Magicians coin. Does the other side look normal? Report this Post to the Staff
chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 05/30/2018 08:45 am Those magicians coins are done on a lathe. Is there a chance this is a full Struck Through Grease since the rim is intact and minute details are present? Really interesting.

uruman Pillar of the Community United States 5193 Posts	Posted 05/30/2018 09:01 am better pictures from obverse and reverse are needed Report this Post to the Staff
chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 05/30/2018 09:09 am I think that is the obverse and reverse. They don't match. Is it a Lincoln Cent? We can't see anything in the pictures. When you had it under your microscope did what little you could see line up with where it would be located on a normal coin?

nfine Pillar of the Community United States 3474 Posts	Posted 05/30/2018 11:14 am 100% off center Lincoln (blank planchet). Given enough imagination and magnification, you can see just about anything. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/30/2018 11:23 am I agree. Those lines you see are what a planchet has. They are rolling lines on the stock material. Seeing something in the would be contact marks from other coin and would be incuse. If it we struck, they would be raised and normal. But the lines tell me this never happened.

Chavez Valued Member United States 252 Posts	Posted 05/30/2018 12:00 pm Folks, I can't make heads or tails of this coin I got a 3D image and some other pics too. It weighs in at 2.5033 grams. The bay sells these for about 3-5 dollars. Since it's magical, do you think it can go for more? Some of these pics you have to use your imagination. One of them might look to say America on it. It's weird because it wasn't where America a normally lined up on a penny. Report this Post to the Staff
