Merged The MANDELA Effect.

Oh noes!

This is worse than a Mandella. I may have found an artifact.

A brass penny 1991D!

Our world never made brass pennies. I found it in the register at work. There it was all shinny brassy among the copper plated pennies.

Did someone cross over from another empirical matrix with a purse full of these?

(I did find a brassy penny, but there's a less fantastic reason it exists.)
 
I think there were some brass pennies in the 1940s. Pennies were made from a brass core coated with a copper alloy. There were some manufacturing errors where pennies got minted without the copper coat. Those are rare.

What you have was probably made with a zinc coating that was then heated like this:

Well, I'm positive that shemp died in 1977. So, clearly we have entered a paradox.


*I originally mistyped "paradix." I wanted to leave it because it sounds hilarious (to me), but I settled for this immature ETA.*

perhaps unrelated, but i spent a fairly long time in Africa ( south). And several people i spoke to said that in their opinion, when Mandela died, the actual death was not made official for quite some time.

Supposedly for all kinds of political reason of one sort or another.

They were not talking about the difference between actual death and official death being in years, but more in weeks (several)

A few people mentioned it, and that at that time there were all kinds of rumours of his death circulating a (few) weeks before it was made public.

I got the impression that many people kind of doubted the S.A. governments official statements on all manner of things ...kind of as a general sentiment. Sort of like the distrust you might see amongst some people in the west towards their governments and government agencies, and official versions of events....but just with a much wider % of the population thinking like that in SA

While we doubt the government's stories as much as anyone else, I don't remember anything even vaguely like that happening here at the time of Mandela's death.

We knew he was infirm for ages. We knew he was ill nearer the end, and there were regular reports of people visiting him. He had a close friend and assistant in Zelda La Grange, who was with him throughout his last days and weeks. It forms part of the book she wrote.

The book, titled “Good Morning, Mr Mandela”, is La Grange’s tell-all account of the time she spent at Mandela’s side and, according to excerpts and reports in the weekend media, includes insights and descriptions of the squabbling and power struggles that took place within the Mandela family both before and after the Nobel Laureate’s death in December.
 
I found a pretty interesting Mandela effect recently;
