10 cents. It has no special value unless it's in uncirculated condition.

If you look at the other dimes in your pocket change, you'll see they all have a copper ring around the edge. All circulating US dimes dated 1965 and later have been made of a 3-layer "sandwich" of copper-nickel bonded to a pure copper core.

What year were full copper pennies no longer made?

1982 was the last year for 95%-copper pennies. And the first year for the zinc pennies. They made both types that year, and the only way to tell them apart is by weight -- the zinc pennies are lighter.Answer100% copper pennies were last minted by the US in 1857. These were large cents, about the size of the "golden" dollar coins. The Flying Eagle and Indian Cents from 1856 to 1864 were 88% copper and 12% nickel. Beginning in 1864 Indian Cents, and later Lincoln Cents, were minted in 95% copper and 5% tin, technically this is bronze. AnswerAnother way to tell the copper penny from the copper coated zinc penny is when a penny is dropped on a hard surface the copper penny will have a ringing sound, the zinc penny will not ring.


Why are US coins different colors?

Originally coins were different colors because they were made of different metals whose cost reflected the coins' denominations. A cent (penny) was made of copper because copper was an inexpensive material and 1 cent worth of it could be made into a convenient-sized coin. Higher-value coins were made of nickel, silver, or gold in amounts equal to their denomination; e.g. a quarter contained 25¢ worth of silver, an eagle contained $10 in gold, and so on.Modern US coins are generally the same size and similar weight to their precious- metal ancestors so similar-color metals are used for consistency. Pennies are now made of zinc but are plated with copper; dimes, quarters, and halves are made of a cupronickel alloy that's similar in color to silver; $1 coins are struck in a brass alloy that resembles gold.Many other countries take a somewhat different approach. Older denominations and sizes were replaced with new coins that are more practical for modern needs such as vending machines and coin-counters. Different colors are used to make it easy for people to identify the coins even if they have similar sizes and/or designs. In most cases the same relation of color to value is still used: low-value coins are copper-colored, medium-value coins are silver-colored, and higher-value coins are gold-colored. Many countries also use "ringed" coins, where an outer ring of one color surrounds a core piece of a different color.


What is the value of an 1863 US 5 cent coin?

Technically it's a Half Dime, although it is 5 cents. The first US 5 cent coin was made in 1866. Assuming the coin is circulated and has no mintmark, the 1863 Liberty Seated Half Dime is a better date of the series. Because most coins show heavy wear, for an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. In general retail values for low grade coins are $125.00-$240.00, better grade are $340.00-$400.00 and coins showing almost no wear run from $510.00-$575.00. Values are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched, used as jewelery or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer. Rogrwilk again... when I look at 1863 Liberty Seated Half Dimes on the internet, they look nothing like the coin I have. On one side, my coin has the big number "5" and the word "cents" under it. The 5 is encircled by a ring of stars with the wording above the stars reading "United States of America". On the other side the date of 1863 appears with the words "In God We Trust" along with a design just like on the one side of the 1882 Shield Nickel. So do I have an 1863 half dime and if so, why can't I find a picture like the one I have on the internet?? Thanks for your help!!

What would happen to a gold ring dropped into a solution of copper nitrate?

When a gold ring is dropped into a solution of copper nitrate, a redox reaction takes place where the gold would dissolve as gold ions, and copper from the copper nitrate would deposit onto the ring. This results in the gold ring becoming plated with a layer of copper.

What does 18k gersc stamped on the inside a diamond ring mean?

A: The GE usually stands for Gold Electroplate. The rest is the initials of the designer.Gold Electroplating is done by taking a silver ring, plating it with copper, and then plating the copper with 18kt gold. The gold (18kt) is so thin it essentially has no value. Jewelers will not generally size a GE ring, if it is sized you will see the plating flake off, and there will be three colours visible, the gold plating, the copper, then the silver. A GE ring is essentially costume jewellery.
