Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 05/31/2015 02:27 am Did someone do that to test if it was copper or what? It's sure a shame. Anyhow, it's still an incredible find. Have it certified! Get an article in Coin World! Every numismatist in the country will know your name! I'll have to start weighing all my 1983s and 1982-D small dates, and ask my parents to set them aside. I didn't even know about these until now, and I suspect not enough people bother checking, so I'm sure there are plenty more for us to find.

Lancer111 New Member 18 Posts	Posted 05/31/2015 10:14 am Hey, if somehow the damage can be explained (I'm hoping from the mint) wouldn't it be worth more with an error on the coin how cool would that be. Report this Post to the Staff

Whether the damage can be attributed to the mint or outside the mint it happened after it was struck.Still considered a damaged coin. Definitely need the weight. Report this Post to the Staff
