A US One Cent (penny) planchet, which is a circular metal disk intended for coinage that bypassed the striking process. This unstruck blank features a copper-colored surface. Both faces are entirely smooth and devoid of any mint-applied designs, inscriptions, or dates. The item is housed in a white cardboard and mylar 2x2-inch coin flip. The flip bears handwritten inscriptions in blue ink reading Penny Planchet and $1.00. Unstruck condition. The surfaces exhibit original copper luster with numerous fine scuffs, light scratches, and scattered small dark spots of oxidation.
