CRH for today has only yielded these two for Meow to show. One has a worm creeping up on the number two (1982p), And the other has a chunk missing out of it on the reverse (1991d).

Meow have found a die gouge and a small lamination.

Go sit in the sun and take the bath of satisfaction.

A bit of the old nip for Meow, too. Good eyes to catch those. Not much, if any real value, but certainly worth saving as good examples.

By the date is a gas bubble and on the reverse looks like damage and zinc rot starting. It is a spender.

If the '82 weighs 2.5g then it's a ZLincoln and John is right. If it's 3.11g it's Copper and I'll stand by my statement. So - enquiring minds want to know, Kitty... (1982 is the transition year).

Need to know the date or weight on the other one too... my brain did not jump directly to Zinc Rot, I was seeing it as an older copper coin.

The first coin shows a Plating Bubble, and the 2nd coin shows sticky residue, not a Lamination error.

They are both Zincolns. The second one does seem has a some junk on it, but it is in a divot. There is a small chunk missing on the surface.


Ahhhh, Meow has figured it out after VERY close inspection. The black substance is corrosive to the surface of the coin. Part of the black stuff fell off, taking a little bit of the surface under it. So Meow cant even find a lamination error.......Feline Lament..........

Poor Meow...

You know what they say, right?

Give a cat a fish and he'll eat for a day.
Teach a cat to fish and he'll sit on his boat all day and pout that nobody gave him a fish.
