coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/18/2019 3:03 pm Also the reprocessing (plating of the coin) pretty much removes the value for this coin. Collectors prefer the original surface finish. Non collectors think they are a great coin. (but they link shiny stuff) Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 03/19/2019 6:28 pm I'm not sure why but a great many of the reprocessed steel cents have that doubled appearance on the date. I think it somehow comes from the processing they do to the coins to remove the old plating and/or corrosion before they replate them. Report this Post to the Staff

I feel all the previous zinc was not removed, with a fresh shiny plating over the old zinc, it enhances what was left over that shouldn't be there. (Kind of like the zinc dust that gets plated over on the Zincolns. Report this Post to the Staff
