Hello everyone one quick note to silver coin,,you speak as if you have experience ,first that coin isn't even an inch around what makes you think I was doinging it wrong it's not too hard to hear up a penny evenly,I wasnt using a pencil torch and as far as holding the torch in one spot and burning the copper those were zinc cents except the one solid copper as you con see nothing happend to the copper cent but the zinc cents ,the copper never acted like it wanted to start sagging and to heat that penny evenly would make both sides sag the same direction not one side up and down and the other side sideways ,and the coin couldn't have been acid bathed because it weighs 3.1grams there is no copper missing ,and I think by the time you got a penny hot enough to melt that's exactly what's gonna happen it's going to melt,so I dont think I did it wrong and you wouldnt have any idea how I did it or what I used to do it,I'm not some 13 year old kid playing around with money nobody seemed to be willing to show me an example or try to duplicate my coin everyone had great ideas of how this happend but nobody could show me so I experimented my self I may not be the greatest or even considered a good coin collector but I think I know what an acid bath or heat or whatever else everyone said was the cause still nobody could show me and make a believer out of me sorry but it just seems like you like everyone else has the answers but not the proof to tell me I did it wrong and never experiencing it first hand yourself explain exactly how I should heat up something less than an inch around how can anybody learn anything if nobody can show you an example of something that they witnessedpersonallt thanks everyone

The 1984 you torched is a copper plated zinc Lincoln so it's not going to look the same.

Coop already showed you another example, and no ones going to recreate it or tell you to because again, that's defacing US currency which is illegal.

Ok buster you need to calm down. Please don't have such a passive aggressive tone with me.

You did not heat up the coin for it to be hot enough for the plating to melt off before the core was ruined.

You burned the coin, you did not melt it. It goes through these stages: burn, melt, and evaporate.

No one has time to prove facts to you. This is simply one of the most useless discussions I've seen on here. This is not relating to coins, and has no meaning. I do not have time to burn a cent, simple as that.

Move on from this topic please and do not assume things.
