You know you're old when people are collecting coins that weren't even issued when you started collecting.

Now how did that happen   You can buy the 82's as a set pretty cheaply. John1  |

Problem is I don't have a scale and the ping test isn't working for me because I have pretty severe hearing loss. Is there another way to tell which are copper/zinc? |

Nice to put together a set of Lincolns by CRH. there is a simple balance scale that you can make in less than a minute from an ice cream stick or even better, a wooden tongue depressor. Illustrations might be on Lincoln Cent RESOURCE web site. |

For my Whitman Classic, I have put my 82s together from CRH. It's interesting to observe the distribution of each type. For my Dansco, I'll buy some nice, shiny red BU like Fuzzy's example!  |

You can get a scale for less than $5 from china but it takes a bit to get to you. John1 |

The ring test works well too and is very quick.

I swear you could get a 1982 penny from the ground right now if you wanted to.
