Interesting Penny - this one has acne
Just curious if anybody has an opinion on the value of this unfortunate penny. Other than the horrible minting job, this one is cherry. Thoughts? Worth more than $0.01?

Now that's an extreme plating bubbling and I am sure someone might pay a couple dollars but usually this adds no extra value.

Re: Interesting Penny - this one has acne
To bad it isn't a CAM. These zincolns sure have taken away from what a good cent should look like. Plating issues, zinc corrosion, they are like they are intended to be used for a few years then just waste away. It is a pretty good example of plating issues though. Neat coin.
