They're less common than large date, but they're not really all that scarce. I wouldn't expect it to be worth any more than any other copper cent of the era.

The 82 s/d zinc. is a lot more scarcer than the copper one.
I keep a roll of those and upgrade them when I find any better. They are getting close to being all BU reds.
Just to have just in case :) Zinc's do not last very long in the wild. I know maybe fruitless, but I still check for an 83

Yeah, the zinc small date is the scarcest combination. I don't search cents that much, but I have only found two total, and one has some bubbling/corrosion starting that is eventually going to kill it. I'd only keep nice reds of the other combinations.
