If the weight is 2.5 is it the zinc? That's preferable?

You would want a 1982-D small date LMC to weigh 3.1 grams, then it would be on a copper planchet. (Very, Very rare) Zinc version (2.5 grams) would be worth 1 cent. |

I'm waiting on my scale to get here. It doesn't feel heavy like older pennies but I could be wrong, I'll post weight as soon as I get scale1
Thank you everyone for confirming it's a small date

Yes my 1982 D penny small date is 2.5g. Received scale today. This penny is only worth face value?

Thanks for getting back with the weight - a lot of times we never get to the end of a story here.

I do and have checked every one of my 1982-D small dates for that Unicorn of a 3.1g copper planchet.
I also occasionally buy a lotto ticket. Odds of winning are similar.

Speaking of which, tonight's Powerball is $1.09 billion, if I win, I'll do one heck of a CC contest.... maybe something like a 1893 MS65 CC Morgan or something, that'd be fun.
