CuriousCoinRitz New Member Canada 25 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 02:26 am I found this 1969 penny, the obverse side looks silver, and the weight is different then it's supposed to be. The weight for a 1969 penny should be 3.24 grams but this one is 3.37 grams Edited by CuriousCoinRitz 11/12/2019 03:12 am Report this Post to the Staff

CuriousCoinRitz New Member Canada 25 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 4:41 pm okay so what does that in terms of worth? Report this Post to the Staff
Daves Errors Pillar of the Community United States 1566 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 4:48 pm I would say It's a normal coin with some kind of film on it and not plated. You can see to much copper. Try giving it a light cleaning with some acetone. Edited by Daves Errors 11/12/2019 4:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
