Chawkdan Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 06/01/2023 8:14 pm I have this 1994 d penny that does weigh 2.5 grams but is easily larger than normal. Measuring it shows about 1/10 cm larger end to end but actually looks and seems even bigger as when u put the " brown penny on top of the grey penny u can still see the grey one easily . But if u put the grey one on top it totally hides it. Error? Or .... Thanks for all your help A few buddies now are into the hobby and I tell them to come here for help ! :) Report this Post to the Staff
