Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 09/29/2022 9:12 pm It looks like the grease in the striking chamber upped the pressure enough to cause the damage to the plating. I really don't like the zinc core Lincoln cents. Too may issues with plating. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
