I have a 1942 S Wheat Penny (Steel). I had an XRF analysis completed on it and the results are it is 50% Copper, 35 % Nickel, and other elements. I have not found anything about this coin and research only eludes to Judd 2080 or 2081. I cannot find a record of such a penny. Any ideas or suggestions?

the easiest way is to drag them off your desktop and drop them in the text box for posting... the same box you used to type "How do I upload pics here?" it takes a few seconds for them to upload.

I think the 1951-D cent above was glued to a letter mailed out to someone one's mailing list as a promo. That's what is on the reverse - Glue (and it's been cleaned at some point)

Again, you are not getting what we're saying. Yes, all those metals might be in your tests, but they're there because of the plating. The coin is a normal copper cent that has been plated. Rinse and Repeat please......... And, once again I'll make my offer: (again to folks who are certain they have a mint error coin) I will PAY YOU your submission fees & Postage if the coin comes back as ANY kind of error coin. So, you have no risk - submit it, and get fully reimbursed - Let me know if you'd like to take advantage of me, please

I’ve made that offer numerous times before on different platforms and I have yet to have anyone take me up on it

Wow, I figured it'd be the other way around!
