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 with only two examples found 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. Copper weight around 3.11g while Zinc weight around 2.5g.
