Description:

A Change in Our Change

Metallic Shortage Leads to New Coin Composition

 

Following the attack at Pearl Harbor, the US had to modify the components in our coinage from copper to steel/ zinc so the copper could be used for materials in World War II.

 

This set includes a

1943 Steel/Zinc Cent

and a

United States Steel Corporation Stock Certificate.

 

The 1943 Steel/Zinc Penny is a nice average circulated example from the P Mint that’s free of tin pest or corrosion.

 

         The Stock Certificate has a center vignette that features an inside-look of the workers in a steel foundry. It was issued by the United States Steel Corporation and engraved by the American Bank Note Company. The stock certificate has been cancelled. As we have multiple certificates in stock, it may vary in color (gold, green, brown), serial number, shares, recipient, cancel date, preferred/ common stock, or issuer.

 

         This Steel Pair makes an exciting addition to even the finest of collections, as it is worthy of a coveted spot on a wall in a home, office, or den. It also serves to be an incredible gift for history buffs, coin collectors, jewelers, and steel enthusiasts.

 

Although we find this couple to be an exciting offer that is certainly fair amongst numismatic collectible standards, we are pleased to consider a reasonable counteroffer should you feel a discount would land this item into your collection.
