Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 09/14/2023 2:55 pm @zen, for sure this cent didn't leave the mint looking like this. The reverse has been mechanically abraded, such as with sandpaper. Over most of that surface, the copper plating is now missing and you can see the underlying zinc core. It should be underweight.
