Description: This is a beautiful coin and rare. (FD-1) I have never seen another one like this. It was in an old roll of wheat cents that were in a box in my parent's estate. The box didn't have anything beyond 1963. I looked it up and found this: "Many Lincoln cents made both before and after World War II were plated by individuals outside the Mint to create so-called "fantasy" coins that mimic the novelty of the 1943 steel cents, which were made by the U.S. Mint to save copper for the war effort. The post-Mint plating could be silver, pewter, or even mercury -- the latter of which was commonly used to give pennies a silvery color during the the 1950s."
