Read this on another forum:
Pressed Pennies--(1) Avoid the bight shiny pennies. Depending on what penny you use, you may get a smear of zinc (silver looking metal). In 1982, pennies were made with both copper and zinc. Use pre-1982 pennies.
I was gonna do this and saved a bunch of shiny new pennies. Should I find old ones now?
They look just as good to me. It sort of looks like a rainbow effect, if I remember correctly. It wasn't highly noticable to me, but someone might care. Dh did a few last year, but don't know where they are now.
