Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5780 Posts	Posted 08/03/2022 1:39 pm Well.... You have an image of a 1960D and a 1982. Others will be along shortly to help. Edit: That is a small date. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 08/03/2022 1:47 pm Overlooking the two 1960 cents you're showing, the 1982-D you have included is indeed a small date cent, and what you need to find is this same coin minted in copper. Buy a set of scales (under $10) and if you're ready lucky, this 82-D will pay off big time for you! Let us know! Bonne chance! Report this Post to the Staff
datadragon Pillar of the Community United States 1648 Posts	Posted 08/03/2022 2:16 pm Its a small date... http://lincolncentresource.com/smal...es/1982.html @merclover I believe only two are known to exist of the 82-D copper small date so far. I believe they were 3.07g and 3.08g (Normal for copper planchet is 3.11g but there is some variance. Normal for zinc planchet is 2.5g). Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/03/2022 2:56 pm Yes, it's the D mint small date copper that's valuable. Report this Post to the Staff
datadragon Pillar of the Community United States 1648 Posts	Posted 08/03/2022 3:03 pm Yes, there are actually 7 varieties for 1982 Lincoln cents. You will notice that its only the 1982-D small date that is only in zinc, and so if found on copper its a rare error as coinfrog also mentioned. The others all can be found on both zinc and copper planchets normally and only valuable in certain cases like a very high grade if you look at PCGS website price guide or has some other reason like another variety or error. Heres a couple more differences of the small and large 1982 date to help from a short video. pHWyy51XDA0 5s Edited by datadragon 08/03/2022 3:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff
