My first thought is plated copper?
a steal
I recently saw a repeat on 'strange inheritance' that showed a 1974-D aluminum cent that got certified by PCGS.
The government decided they wanted it back and took it.

That sure looks like copper bleeding through near "IN GOD" and on the reverse over "UNI" fo UNITED.

Nice story to make it plausible
That would be a pass for me.... looks like it may have been plated... no weight given.... 'new'(?) seller... Talk about 'red flags'... even some sirens there.... Buh-bye.... Cheers, RickO
Has anyone reported this seller to the Secret Service?
