numismo Rest in Peace United States 3039 Posts	Posted 07/24/2011 9:25 pm The replated 43s look too bright. It's a funny grayish color. By the way, to CCF. Edited by numismo 07/24/2011 9:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff

specksynder Pillar of the Community United States 1080 Posts	Posted 07/24/2011 9:40 pm look at the edge of the cent. If the edge is the same shiny as the two faces, it's resurfaced. If the edge looks different, it's likely original Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 07/25/2011 4:54 pm Weight probably won't tell you anything. As specksnyder said, check the edge. Report this Post to the Staff

Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 07/25/2011 10:07 pm the edge is the best way to tell, the originals were not plated on the edges. The sheets were plated before the planchets were punched so the edge got missed. If the edge looks like the rest of the coin its replated Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/26/2011 08:17 am A re processed 1943 steel cent will appear glossy, but a real 1943 steel the surface will appear flat in appearance. Report this Post to the Staff
