Just making sure this is grease not circulation wear. I know there is not much of a premium for this. I'm just curious. Would be sad to keep it for 20 yrs and learn it is wear.
Of course, there's the matter of (in)sufficient metal (when the coin is struck) to fill both the shoulder area on the obverse, and the devices immediately underneath/opposite on the reverse. This seems to show fairly frequently on zinc memorial cents. Just something to factor in.
