It does look like it has some erosion damage... But still to be that low in weight... I'm thinking it might have got struck on a wrong planket but that's why I'm reaching out for information.. and yes it does stick to a magnet Report this Post to the Staff

We are locking this topic to prevent posts with "We need images". You will get many more quality responses when there are quality images in the first post of a topic. Please start a new topic when you are able to upload pictures. If needed you can use the testing forum. Tutorials are below. Note: When you start a new topic this one may be removed. So don't panic if you get an email that your topic was removed it's only this one. PC: We highly recommend IrfanView.

Please check your camera settings are set to Medium quality. If it uses compression use 70%, it's perfectly fine for the internet. For file type please use WEBP if your phone has it, otherwise JPG. Avoid PNG and GIF, they are horrible choices. Be sure to crop the image to only show the coin. This is a great setup for cell phones. Collecting since 1972.
