Unusual coin??
4 Answers
Not sure if this is under the correct catagory but I have a silver 1pence. It looks like it has just skipped the bronzing process and am wondering if it could be worth anything? Or where I could find out?

According to this site, http://24carat.co.uk/frame.php?url=magneticpen nies.html the plating is applied before the coins are struck so it sounds like the plating has just worn off.
