Dearborn Moderator United States 97307 Posts	Posted 04/18/2022 1:22 pm The 9 looks normal to me(Maybe a little weak on the inner curl). Yes it is a small date, Denver minted coin. What is the weight of this one? (2.5g?) Can we get a full coin image? (front and back? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Dearborn Moderator United States 97307 Posts	Posted 04/18/2022 2:19 pm Do you have a scale that can measure the weight? (hopefully out to 2 decimal points. [0.00g] Collecting since 1972.

Nightsky New Member United States 25 Posts	Posted 04/22/2022 9:54 pm It weighs 3 grams. Is that normal for a 1982 d penny? Report this Post to the Staff

Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 04/23/2022 12:20 pm I'd try and get a close up of that D it looks a little wonky to me. As for weight you will definitely need a more accurate scale with at least two decimal points. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/23/2022 2:27 pm The obverse die was way over polished, thus the affected date and devices. Looks like a plated over zinc coin with some zinc dust trapped under the plating. Make sure to zero you scale before weighing. Push the Tare button to setup up the scale. 3.11 grams for copper 2.5 grams for zinc cent. So try it again with the Tare weight button hit first before weighing. Report this Post to the Staff
