windychimes Valued Member Canada 250 Posts	Posted 01/06/2011 11:44 am Is it common to find 1983 pennies with extra metal material on the Queen's crown? I have noticed a few on ebay, and they say it is rare, and call it an extra jewel. I found a couple in circulation. Report this Post to the Staff

Dvereckis Valued Member Canada 76 Posts	Posted 01/23/2012 02:00 am I looked through my pennies and found some 1983's with added material on the crown. Then I took forever to try and get some decent photo's of them. However it was over a year after the last post that I read the request. Report this Post to the Staff
