I believe that was just a typo when typing your user name - he was still pressing the shift key on the keyboard when he typed a 4. No worries.

Right.. I totally missed that when I viewed the coin picture and read the topic name. Were they pre-plated before distribution that year? Or was there something else relevant about the year that you were going to tell us later? You know we're all hungry for information, so please, do tell.

in fact it was my enqueries at first here.
I'm shy of cutting the edge of this piece to see if people here were right.

so as I said before it do look like plated of course but ... by who ?
I don't found any other example of this kind of piece.

So as long as I don't put a special agent on that case i'll not be 100% sure ...
sorry

Have to agree with WpgLwr "Cigarette paper foiled".I did this a lot when I was a kid.Sometimes we would have a contest to see which kid's "silver cent" would look like a real minted coin.(If I remember right cig.foil then is still the same used today)
