I have 2 1982 large date pennies one weighs 2.55 and the other is 3.07

The small date no mint weighs 3.10

I'm so confused about which ones are errors?

There is a mint tolerance of +/- .10 grams.Copper normal is 3.11 and zinc 2.5 +/- tolerance.
The big find would be the SD copper from Denver.

In 1982 they made both copper 3.1 grams and zinc copper plated 2.5 grams that is why you see different numbers. As John1 stated it's the 1982 D small date copper that is rare and worth money.

I do check and have checked many 1982-D Lincolns hoping to find that 3.1 gram
Small Date, but really it would be like winning the lottery. Small if any chance of
finding one!

They're probably normal most likely. But, we'll need pictures.
