JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21601 Posts	Posted 04/23/2025 6:50 pm Since 1982, cents are made of a copper plated zinc core. It is easy for the copper plating to get removed by damage. Notice it is just the high points that are missing. Edited by JimmyD 04/23/2025 6:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Pleas stop looking at those online plating errors websites - they are on there to provide false information just for their profits! Report this Post to the Staff
