    There is no such thing as a 1943/2-D steel cent.
    The term that you are hunting for is pareidolia.

    Right, so like I said the correct answer is pareidolia.

    If it were a 1943 car I'd say put some rust inhibitor on it and a clear coat.
    It's call patina.
    I've also heard people buy paint, so your call :)
    It may just be a little too ruff and a spender at this point.

    The OP joined in 2018, but resurfaced this weekend with a "gold" nickel and now this. I'm not convinced this isn't an alt/troll account.

    OK. I'm sorry for my posts about the "gold Nickel". After this thread, I'm convinced the scale was off and the coin did not weigh 5.9 gms!

    Well @Married2Coins, @trish53172 was the OP with the "gold" nickel so I guess we have our answer.

    Why would @Married2Coins be sorry for @trish53172's posts about the gold nickel unless it was an alt/troll account? I think they got mixed up and used the wrong account to respond.

    No, they're apologizing for defending the OP in the gold thread. They're now on board with understanding she/he is just trolling the forum. That's my take anyway.

    Asking about this corroded coin (an honest question from a beginner) might cause further doubts about things she posted (gold nickel) and her skills as a collector. One member here posted she was on the level - a budding collector. Although it is not a gold planchet, I believed her nickel might be something good because there was a gold streak INTO THE COIN that did not disolve in acid and her coin was overweight. Then after seeing the cent and her comments, I made a joke that her scale may be off for the benefits of the members who didn't like the nickel. I hope she sends the nickel to PCGS. I would not waste time on the cent.

    I don't think Trish is a troll.

    @Manifest_Destiny, I think you may be right. After all the other shenanigans this weekend I had some preconceived notions and I may have misinterpreted @Married2Coins' post.

    @Married2Coins I apologize for thinking you were an alt and trying to out you on the boards. I am sorry for any problems it may have caused.

    LOL, Thanks. Last question on this corroded cent thread: That means you thought Trish and I were the same person - right? Has that ever been done?

    Yes and yes, it was done this past Friday/weekend.
