Spence Moderator United States 34457 Posts	Posted 11/12/2018 8:15 pm @clarapedrero1989, if your scale is correct, then this cent is slightly above the US Mint Tolerance: 2.5 g +/- 0.12 g. That is pretty close.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/12/2018 9:27 pm It might be this or was gold plated. If they surface is shiny then it may have been plated. If it is as shiny as a regular cent then it maybe one of the so called, brass cents? Edited by coop 11/12/2018 9:30 pm Report this Post to the Staff
