DOCC Pillar of the Community United States 1502 Posts	Posted 01/03/2024 08:24 am 1962 - 1981 official was 3.11 with a tolerance of 0.13. The 3.35 is about 3% over max tolerance which can be explained by surface accumulation or a slightly thicker planchet. Just not an extra thickness that your caliper can read.

Dearborn Moderator United States 98753 Posts	Posted 01/03/2024 08:25 am Could be a rolled thick planchet. BUT: of the 2 stacked cents in the image, is one bent Bentpenny? I have to look it up, but I think that the heavy one is within tolerances - but barely. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
