Dearborn Moderator United States 94817 Posts	Posted 11/30/2022 5:08 pm all I see is a 1982 large date zinc coin at the moment. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

279773 Valued Member 276 Posts	Posted 11/30/2022 11:09 pm Well, I watched some informative videos on the 82s yesterday, and they noted some errors to look for. So I have been going through my 82 bucket again, and thought I would punch in 1982 and see what was here on the forum. There are many different 1982s, some are plated zinc some are copper. Some have small date some large. Some were errently made of copper when zinc was intended. Some have a doubling of e pluribus unum on the back. I am half way through my 82s now as I speak, and am only looking at reverses now. Your coin. In my humble opinion, was half a percent struk off center, thus makeing the IGWT to be closer to the rim, which I think is common. Anyone may, and can refute this, as it is only my humble opinion,.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21586 Posts	Posted 12/01/2022 08:09 am Not an error, just normal wear and tear on the coin. It is impossible during the striking of a coin for a letter to change from a D to a O, just can't happen. Report this Post to the Staff
