GAcoinnut New Member United States 27 Posts	Posted 09/11/2018 07:49 am Not exactly sure what to call this 2005 Lincoln, improper cleaning or something going on with the planchet? It weighs 3.1g and not magnetic but the rim sits taller than my other 2005's. Has silver tone (zinc probably) facing side but turn it on end still looks copper, inside edge almost looks like what you would see on stained glass (adjoining pieces) and is extremely blurred on both sides. Thank you in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

GAcoinnut New Member United States 27 Posts	Posted 09/11/2018 08:59 am My bad. 3.1 went to different coin. It did weigh 2.5. But it is still thicker than the other coins. The dryer can make it do that? Report this Post to the Staff
