@shau, first welcome to CCF. Second, other than being rotated by 90 degrees, you second attempt at posting a pictured worked perfectly. Virtually 100% of the time, a grey cent like this minted in 2000 is going to be a normal copper-plated cent that someone has stripped off the copper. Left behind is this zinc core. Can you get us an accurate weight of this cent please? Thx.

However it came to be, it did not leave the mint that way. Damaged coin.
