Spence Moderator United States 34396 Posts	Posted 09/29/2023 6:39 pm Yes the copper plating could have been stripped off this cent after it left the mint and this is just the zinc core that remains.

Dearborn Moderator United States 94925 Posts	Posted 09/29/2023 8:05 pm is it the same size and a normal cent? Or is it a bit larger? Collecting since 1972.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73747 Posts	Posted 09/29/2023 11:28 pm We will need the weight to be completely sure. Buy a scale if you can. Could be damaged or it could be a genuine unplated error. https://www.error-ref.com/unplated-cents/ Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Cud Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 09/29/2023 11:38 pm Harbor Freight has a $10 digital scale 2lb limit and reads to 10th of a gram which is close enough. The only problem I found is if you're weighing one after the other rapidly it is inaccurate unless you hit tare to zero it every time. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/30/2023 07:13 am butterfingER, If you plan on staying in the hobby buy a good scale. 0.001 grams is better than 0.01. You can get a nice one for $20. Also get a digital caliper. Your coin looks "stripped" PMD and a minor MAD. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
butterfingER Valued Member United States 85 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 08:33 am So I finally got around to getting this penny weight and it is 2.53 g Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 94925 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 08:54 am So it is not under weight, indicating that the copper plating is still there. Collecting since 1972.
