sir michael New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 02/17/2024 06:12 am Honor to be here, my first post. Unsure what the D is on top of as some angles it looks like an S and other angles it looks like a small D. Thank you for your time. Report this Post to the Staff

This exposes the coin's zinc core and zinc rot begins. This is not uncommon with '80s and '90s zinc core memorial cents. Report this Post to the Staff

sir michael New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 02/17/2024 8:08 pm Thank you all for your help. I've been getting boxes of pennies from the bank, pulling the pre 1982 pennies and putting the others back into service, except for the unusual ones. Knowing about zinc rot will help a great deal as my unusual penny supply has been getting quite big. Cheers! Report this Post to the Staff
