luvmyCAM Pillar of the Community United States 1479 Posts	Posted 07/25/2022 12:43 pm I saw a PCGS zincoln on GreatCollections errors section yesterday labed "defective zinc planchet " or something to that affect along with the coins weight on label. So there is some TPG recognized underweight (defective) zinc planchets in circulation and some in slabs. This coin? send it to ANACS and in 5-6 weeks a definitive answer as to over weight underweight etc. Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5780 Posts	Posted 08/25/2022 9:20 pm The mystery deepens. An XRF scan as stated should help to determine the types of metal that are present. Sending it in for attribution is the best way to get this one answered. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 08/25/2022 10:36 pm This is an interesting one. It's either a zinc planchet well above mint tolerance or a copper planchet well below tolerance. Either way it's an error, but the copper planchet would obviously be far more interesting.
