 to the CCF, Catnip! The only thing that I see is perhaps struck-through-grease on STA. Otherwise not much there. Minimal value. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Catnip, It is a 1982 large date zinc. What are you seeing as a possible error or variety? John1  |

Did you weigh it? If it weighs 3.11 grams instead of 2.5 grams, it might have some value combined with the grease strike-thru error.
But like someone else said, it has a large date, which reduces the value.
Search "Transitional 1982 Penny" and "Transitional 1983 Penny" on YouTube.
If your coin has any value, probably not more than $10 dollars.
I'm new at this. That's why I gave you the search terms to search.
The other commenters are spot on.
Cheers!!

Agree--a well-circulated, common, large date 1982 memorial cent--complete with dings and hits. Worth one cent.

Looking for random anomalies on coins and hoping they match up to something collectable will take you a lot more time, wasted effort, and disappointment repeatedly finding out you have nothing but post mint damage, useless Machine Doubling, Die Deterioration, or minor insignificant imperfections (etc.). Spend some initial time at places like error-ref.com, doubleddie.com, varietyvista.com, conecaonline.org, coppercoins.com etc. to find what actual and collectable coin errors look like. A good way to start is, for instance, separate a bunch of pennies by date. Go to varietyvista.com and, date by date, use the reference there to see what errors are known for that specific coin/mint mark. Look for those specific errors/varieties using the pictures provided. After doing this for awhile you will KNOW what an actual error looks like and not have to waste time on face value and damaged coins. :) How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

To CCF! It's normal. It's worth face value. Errers and Varietys.
