Gold, zinc or science experiment?

While doing a survey of how much copper averaged out in bank rolls I stumbled on a gold cent. It brought back memories of my 6th grade science class and how our teacher showed us how to turn a copper cent into a gold cent. What do you think, science experiment, gold coin or plating issue?
