silviosi, I believe you when you say this coin was coated (as I understand it, back in '43 when produced). But it is also obvious from looking at it's surface that this particular coin has been also re-plated. When was it re-plated in reference to the damage? I cannot even speculate, but was it at some point in it's life re-plated? I think the evidence says YES. Can it not be both "coated" and then later "re-plated"?

You are right for all the points you say. The coin is ruinated, YES, PMD. I will pay to have this coin to analyze, because what it is bizarre on coating, some surfaces of the coins show like plating. For me this it is interesting to analyze to know how to determine is re-plated or not. Sorry, I like those Bl****h. My default.

silviosi, I have no proof this coin has been re-plated, but I think others here will join me when I say it has the "look" of a re-plated coin (the shine of it's surface), not the duller silver a non re-plated steel cent has to it.

Merc, the problem it is not the proof for re-plating and I do not push out this supposition. Far from me. It is interesting for me from the point of view of finding markers for.
