I found this penny while roll searching. I'm betting it's a Dryer Coin, but I thought I'd check. It's 2.43 grams=, has a copper obverse and reverse, and has a silver rounded edge. Even if it is a Dryer Coin, it looks pretty cool in hand! Any input is appreciated.

That would be my guess. You can see how the rim is slightly rolled in indicating PMD. Also, zinc is showing.

Probably spent some time edge-rolling around in something. I'm not going to definitively say it was a dryer, but I can say it's not an error of any kind.
