Best Answer

The US only made steel cents in 1943 to save copper for the war effort. Any 1965 cent that appears to be steel is almost certainly plated.

You can (and should) always test a suspected steel coin with a magnet before jumping to conclusions. If it's not attracted to a magnet it's not steel.
