Well I just started collecting, and decided to try roll hunting. Either I'm missing something obvious which is the most likely, someone messed with this coin, or I'm the luckiest person in the world(very unlikely) This penny weighs 3.7, and I believe is an 82 d small date.

Dang, yeah I been trying to see the difference, but I'm not getting it. Oh well, I was almost sure it wasn't that one.

Well.... that's odd.....
What kind of scale are you using? Is it calibrated?
A copper Cent should weigh around 3.1 grams give or take...
Maybe you meant 3.07 or 3.17

I agree, large date. Yokozuna's fine graphic illustrates the differences very well.
