Went out food shopping first thing this morning. Then out for the last couple hours cutting more branches. National grid hasn't showed up to take the bigger stuff down and were supposed to get another 12-18" of snow tomorrow. I'm not leaving that shit hanging over my roof, there's no damage yet and I plan on it staying that way.

Any of y'all collect or know anything about coins? I have a 1970 penny that looks zinc or silver colored. It doesn't quite look like a dime blank was used. Trying to figure out if its a mistake from the mint or a science project where a kid zinc plated it.
It may be a hoax.

If you have one of these you have something of value.

The Most Expensive Penny




The 1943 copper-alloy cent is one of the most enigmatic coins in American numismatics — and reportedly the most valuable Lincoln penny of all. Just 40 of the coins — probably created by accident, on copper-alloy one-cent blanks left in the presses in the wartime years when pennies were converted to steel — are known to exist. The first 1943 copper cent was sold in 1958 for more than $40,000. In 1996, another went for a whopping $82,500. But those sales pale in comparison with the latest: this week, a dealer in New Jersey sold his 1943 penny for a staggering $1.7 million. Their collection value makes 1943 copper pennies a prime target for counterfeiters: fakes are often made by coating steel cents with copper or altering the dates of 1945, 1948 and 1949 cents. How can you tell if your 1943 copper penny is real? Use a magnet. If the penny sticks, it's not copper. Better luck next time.

Not even an hour in and my pole saws stuck in a branch right next to the power line:wall:. The 2 big branches that were on top of each other, laying on the line, shifted as I was cutting, they are up there much sketchier than I originally thought. :shock: I'm not sure what the fuck I'm doing now. I'm thinking I might have to climb this fucker and chain and lag bolt these branches so they don't fall during the storm tomorrow, ones probably going to to at least tear my gutters off, if not the corner of the roof. I don't have the equipment to take them down without damaging shit. FML, I hate heights, my stomachs knotting up just thinking about it.:spew:

It may be a fake. The most common reason for fakes are for science expierments.

There are some that were struck from the wrong blanks. They are worth a bit 100-150 bucks circulated.

I guess ill rub the edge on something and see if its plated or not.

It looks like a penny that was dipped in a mercury salt. It gets that wet silver look. Don't keep that one indoors if it is mercurized.

I grew up in a Westinghouse/Tappan town in the 50's. Seems like every dad I knew had a 5 lb jug of Mercury in the basement. With all the spilled Hg in the basements from us fucking around with it, I'm surprised we weren't damaged (more). Last year someone noticed a "silvery substance" in the drain of one of those 30's homes. Had the whole street closed off.

I have one of those squat little 1-pound bottles of it. Size of an apricot.
