CursiveTea New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 04/03/2024 8:55 pm I found what I believe to be a 1982 D small date penny. I don't even know where to go from here if I am indeed correct. Please give me suggestions. * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94672 Posts	Posted 04/03/2024 9:45 pm for these coins - it is imperative that an accurate weight is measured (and hopefully provided here for us to see) But yes, it is a Denver cent, and it is a 1982 small date coin. But does it weigh 2.5 grams or 3.11 grams? (I'm betting on 2.5g) Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

CursiveTea New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 04/03/2024 11:46 pm This will be my third time, hoping this post sticks. It is indeed 2.5, is there any value? Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/04/2024 04:36 am CursiveTea, I moved your thread to the proper section. The 1982-D small date (copper) is the one you need to find. It weights 3.1 grams +/- .10 grams mint tolerance. Good luck with your hunting. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
