ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19107 Posts	Posted 02/04/2023 6:12 pm I love it! For fun, there should be a 'I Told You So' forum, featuring slabs/holders (with backstory) which convey the message. But, I suppose that would be bad manners. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 02/05/2023 04:52 am Also, didn't the submitter have to pay extra for the gold shield and extra for the label designation on top of the normal grading/slabbing fee? John1 Report this Post to the Staff

DiscoLover82 Valued Member United States 218 Posts	Posted 02/05/2023 09:32 am That reminds me of how my current project right now is to carry around two reprocessed 1943 steel cents as pocket pieces, to try to wear the "reprocessing" off and expose the original cents for what they're worth.

bobby131313 Forum Dad United States 24147 Posts	Posted 02/17/2023 5:48 pm There's a guy on Facebook right now that posted this and swears it's not plated. He says he took it to a dealer and he agrees. He says the US mint has been pulling them out of circulation and "polishing them back to original specs." Swears because of that PCGS will grade it. Frustrating or hysterical? Who knows. Shop CCF Members on eBay. Report this Post to the Staff
