Description
Off Metal 1943-S Cent, AU55
Struck on a Silver Dime Planchet
1943-S 1C Lincoln Cent -- Struck on a Silver Dime Planchet --
AU55 PCGS. Struck the same year that cents were issued in
zinc-plated steel alloy, the present off metal error has the
first-glance appearance of a typical 1943-S cent. Nonetheless, its
unusual characteristics caused it to disappear promptly from
commerce, since both sides display substantial luster. Due to the
slightly undersized flan, the strike is soft on Lincoln's forehead
and shoulder, and the tops of WE TRUST are off the flan. The
remaining legends are intact, although the 3 in the date is lightly
impressed. Mostly silver-gray with blushes of forest-green. A pair
of small roundish marks are noted above the left wheat ear.
