And a small lamination on Abe's jacket. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 11:08 am @cool, in addition to answering those other questions, please add the weight of this cent. Knowing this would help to confirm that that your cent is normal and not some other planchet.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95018 Posts	Posted 09/02/2023 5:21 pm ask a specific question other than "Anyone Recognize The Planchet?" Which I don't, to me almost all planchets look alike right after they leave the upsetting mill and before they reach the coin press. After that, they are called "coins" Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." - Benjamin Franklin 7070 type set coin count: 51/76 Uncirculated American Silver Eagles My American Silver Eagle Proof Collection Sacagawea Dollars Innovation Dollars Eisenhower-Dollars Kennedy-Half Dollars Washington-Quarters Roosevelt-Dimes Buffalo-Nickels 1938-2005 Jefferson-Nickels Lincoln-Cents Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5770 Posts	Posted 09/02/2023 8:41 pm I'm not sure I understand the title either. I'm pretty sure this is why there were lots of questions. Everyone was trying to understand the question. Thanks for the answers. The porous surfaces and the low weight lead me to think this coin has been in some sort of acidic environment which dissolved some of the copper. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73798 Posts	Posted 09/02/2023 11:22 pm Looks like an acid coin. That would explain the loss of weight. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Coolmobd Valued Member United States 106 Posts	Posted 09/03/2023 01:45 am acid is not going to manipulate the formation of the metal.its too far ingrained. I said it was indented on the lapel. I didn't think it could be any clearer. Does anyone recognize this planchett. I have other acid coins and it's not the same aftermath. Is this on the correct planchet? Report this Post to the Staff
