Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 05/21/2021 6:08 pm I'm on team brazing for this one (nice work @roth), but I think that we all agree that regardless of the specific method, this cent has been damaged.

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 05/21/2021 9:44 pm If the use silver brass molding have something. I do not thing this by color. The brass molding has so much tin inside that will eat the copper during the melting and purification. Nothing worth here. Report this Post to the Staff
Rothery Pillar of the Community 2145 Posts	Posted 05/21/2021 10:12 pm Well glad to see you post silviosi! I figured you would know composition - All I did was dribble some Brazing rod on a 95% copper cent just to see color. I had the torch on and didn't have time to put the brazing tip on - so Yes. Higher heat over the entire coin - It did get cherry red - but just wanted to show Gold color Report this Post to the Staff
