If it is a 1982p SD zinc DDR-001 (FS#1801)- PCGS has two graded, an AU55 BN and an AU58 BN.
CC has the images listed as Mid Die State which would be about halfway in the life of the die. I'm not sure on the average production numbers per die during that time period.
So there should still be plenty to be found, but not many (2-3?) have been reported according to VV.

PetesPockets55, The way PCGS has the 1982 FS1801 listed is weird. Got to find it under 1982D... lazy I guess. EDIT: for the MS-62 and MS-63

LOL and thanks again LOMadness. Some of my image files are that way. Random coins in some folders and other folders completely empty.  Hopefully my learning curve starts to go up eventually, instead of looking like an inverted Mt. Everest.

Hello: My name is Jim Proctor. I'm very new to this "Coin Community" and I introduce myself as a coin collector, intense cherrypicker of U.S. Coinage and, I'm admitting, not very savvy with this website. But I will learn. In 2008 I found a 1982 Small Date Zinc DDR Lincoln Cent. I reached out over the internet and found a wonderful collector and coin expert named Ken Potter. Ken and I talked, I sent my coin to him for verification and that's how I discovered the coin's unique qualities. There was quite an article in Numismatic News which can be found if you search the internet. I had the coin properly attributed and graded by NGC. It's a MS 62 RD which I believe is the highest graded so far for this unique coin. Pictures of this coin were taken by Ken Potter and some how or another pictures also ended up on the Lincoln Cent Resource webpage. These can be viewed at the following website. http://www.lincolncentresource.com/...982ddr1.html

Excellent coin KoinAge  John1, Wexler's is WDDR-002, Variety Vista's is DDR-001, 1-R-IV, and Copper Coins is 1982P-1DR-001. They all cross ref to FS-1801 except for Copper Coins. There was a thread not to long ago about different numbering systems. EDIT: I guess "VP-002" on that NGC case is an NGC numbering system?

John1, Oh, I see what you are saying. I guess LincolnCentResource.com needs to fix their information on the cross ref to Doubleddie.com.
