Cereal_Killer New Member United States 35 Posts	Posted 10/02/2023 02:04 am The 1982 sm date has an error where they used the normal 1982 planchets (copper planchets instead of zinc) so with that in mind is it possible that there are normal 1982 cents that accidently used zinc planchets as well?

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73798 Posts	Posted 10/02/2023 02:38 am The 1982's both had copper planchets and zinc planchets. Some were copper, some were zinc. The rare one is the 1982 D Small Date copper planchet. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Cereal_Killer New Member United States 35 Posts	Posted 10/02/2023 03:55 am Right...but is there also some struck on the wrong planchet for the normal 1982? The normal 1982 was struck for awhile and during that same year they switched to zinc. In that process we got the transitional error for the small date, so I thought the same may be true for the normal date also Edited by Cereal_Killer 10/02/2023 03:58 am Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95075 Posts	Posted 10/02/2023 11:26 am The large date and the Small date cents are all normal on both copper and zinc - Denver just didn't mint very many Small date copper coins that year.
