Dearborn Moderator United States 95740 Posts	Posted 05/25/2023 1:12 pm obviously it ain't a transitional copper (full on copper) cent since the slab states it is "copper PLATED steel". I think I'll go home and plate up a bunch of my steelies with copper and send them into SSGC - flood the market if you will. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

It would be cheaper to buy some empty slabs then print labels from DPGS (Dearborn Prestigious Grading Service). You could make a fortune on Etsy etc. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

Good catch Dearborn and Bobby. For those new, a copper plated 1943 cent is not worth much at all and its the poster here who misunderstands rather than the grading company who misled. The 1943 cent made of copper is the coin worth money but there are many more fakes than real ones out there now, some covered here https://www.thesprucecrafts.com/gen...penny-768883 and https://www.gainesvillecoins.com/bl...-penny-value I used to wonder what it would be like to read others peoples minds... but then I got a facebook account, and got over that REAL QUICK Also posted elsewhere in the past, this is an ad from a coin magazine in 1962. As long as the owner sent in his own coin it was deemed legal, there were probably 1000's done by this and other companies even before all these modern attempts.
