i cant tell if its clean or not but it does have a mirror finish. and looks like a faded copper look. ( i cant see why someone would go though the trouble of cleaning a 79 copper to a mirror finsih

    Sounds like one of those PL Zincolns i pull from rolls occasionally.

    i think these are cents that are struck with fresh new dies.
    but i wonder if the blanks used are actually polished to some degree also?
