Looking for some help with a coin I came across today and can't find much information on the internet. I was weighing my coins and found a 1999 Canadian penny with a weight of 2.64g instead of 2.25. I'm not sure if this would be struck on the wrong planchet, any help would be appreciated.

For the copper plated zinc cents I believe it is +-.166g tolerance.
The OP's cent could have been struck from slightly thick stock.

I agree. It's a likely possibility.
