Description: BACKGROUNDPlease see the pictures to make your own assessment but from everything I have researched, this is likely a rare error variety due to the missing chromium plating on the underlying steel. Specifically, there are Obv. & Rev. pictures of the coin itself surrounded by six normal plated 1945 five cent examples. Notice given the very good surface quality of this coin (see below) and how it's overall hue on both sides matches the parts of the other where the chromium playing has been worn off expositing steel. PICTURES / QUALITYIn regard to the pictures, capturing the exact luster of any coin with a camera as it is seen in-person by the naked eye is surprisingly difficult. These pictures at 2.5-10x magnification are not exact but still a good representation of the actual coin, even though many of the surface marks are highly exaggerated and not nearly as visible and predominate when seen in person. SHIPPINGU.S. - Free shipping with tracking via eBay Standard Delivery. If Priority or Overnight Mail is required, please contact me shortly after payment & I will accommodate you at actual cost - no added fees.INTERNATIONAL - I will gladly ship to any country allowed by Bay via USPS International 1st Class Envelope Mail. Unfortunately for smaller shipments, this does not come with tracking and can take a few weeks, but the benefit is that most countries do not stop, open & charge additional import tariffs & fees with 1st-Class Mail envelopes. Please note that eBay’s checkout system is likely to automatically add your country’s VAT, just like it does for a U.S. buyers’ state sales tax, and I have no control over this. Thank you for looking and please contact me with any questions.
