coinhunting10 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 01/24/2024 1:58 pm I have come across a similar 1975 penny and was wondering if anyone could give additional comments about it. Looks like there is an error on the back of it. Weight: 3.2 grams Report this Post to the Staff

halfamind Pillar of the Community United States 1489 Posts	Posted 01/24/2024 4:02 pm The extra weight (approximately 0.1 gram) would be the attempt at plating. It is a damaged coin and likely would not stick to a magnet. Report this Post to the Staff
