Can someone inform you why there's two different types of descriptions online with the 1982 large date penny weight I have attached two different Google searches
Quote: The first generation of the 1982 pennies has a composition of 95% copper and 5% zinc and tin. They weigh 3.11 grams and have a diameter of 19 millimeters. Conversely, the second generation has 95% zinc and 5% tin and copper. Because of this composition, these 1982 pennies weigh less at 2.5 grams.
