I poked at it some more. All solid Has anybody really burst a plating bubble before? Or do you just repeat a wives tale that poking a plating bubble will burst it? With a toothpick ? Maybe a rose thorn, but a toothpick? Be sensible now - - "OH YEAH!"  EDIT: I have never poked any kind of plating bubble on a Zinc Cent and actually saw it deflate. Edited by Marv65

I suppose a plating bubble is indeed possible between the B and E of LIBERTY, but application of Occam's Razor results in this phenomenon being attributed as a BIE.

Just in case:
Oc·cam's ra·zor
/#716;äk#601;mz #712;r#257;z#601;r/
noun
the principle (attributed to William of Occam) that in explaining a thing no more assumptions should be made than are necessary. The principle is often invoked to defend reductionism or nominalism.

Most folks interpret The Razor as "the simplest explanation is usually the correct one". I invoked it as "the highest probability explanation is probably the correct one". Usually it's the same thing, since lower probability explanations are often more complicated, and have more assumptions.

First time I've ever heard that if it's been posted before, it can't be posted again. But apparently it can cause you did it yourself. |
