Bump111 Pillar of the Community United States 3329 Posts	Posted 11/14/2017 11:43 am Thanks for the pic, myshipper. So, you have weighed that '83 and it is in the 3.1 gram range? If so, you may have quite the rarity there. "Nummi rari mira sunt, si sumptus ferre potes." - Christophorus filius Scotiae Report this Post to the Staff

I hadn't heard of brass planchets in that time frame. Just out of curiosity now that I am thinking about it - how much you figure a brass cent would weigh? I assumed it would be about the same as bronze... "Nummi rari mira sunt, si sumptus ferre potes." - Christophorus filius Scotiae Report this Post to the Staff
myshipper New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 11/14/2017 9:02 pm I'm sorry guys I thought I stated brass plated my mistake as I look back on my previous post and yes it only weighs 2.5 but it's still a cool looking coin Report this Post to the Staff
Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 11/14/2017 9:47 pm As a note on the Brass, all that is is a bit more zinc/tin in the copper alloy mix. Bronze is the normal plating, a .02% change will alter the color. They are NOT completely brass. Report this Post to the Staff
