John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/01/2018 04:57 am Dryer Coin did not come to mind for me. It has a lot of worn copper plating showing the zinc core. The color is cirulation toning. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34430 Posts	Posted 09/01/2018 08:11 am I agree with @john1 that the grey color poking through is the zinc core. How the copper plating was rubbed off is anyone's guess. I suppose it could have been a dryer, but there are plenty of other ways. In any case, this coin is a spender--no extra numismatic value beyond face value.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/01/2018 8:17 pm Looks more like an abused coin. Just part of the plating was rubbed off. Very spendable. Report this Post to the Staff
