Is not that I dont appreciated it but is just that, now, we live in the yea#341; 2025 & 1 cent was stop being produced in 2008. Is it possible to get a wrongly minted coin that is intended for 1 cent coin in 2022? The diameter,thickness & weight is the same as the specs for 1 cent coin. I attached a photo of the coin here.

Davbrian New Member Malaysia 43 Posts	Posted 07/27/2025 03:52 am Thank you @Hondo for the feedback & smart suggestion. My next step is to send it to PCGS /NGC for verification & grading. Moreover, I also managed to get hold unto a Malaysian 1 cent 2007 minted onto a 10 cents planchet at the same time. Well, thank you again @Hondo for the kind suggestion. Report this Post to the Staff
