Ali83 Valued Member United States 98 Posts	Posted 08/21/2024 01:03 am I have a 1982 penny weighing in at 2.5 g#699;rams. I don't think it's a small date, but my batting average is low.. Here is the picture of the date. That black shadow makes the numbers look a bit thicker. Am I wrong, again? I can post pictures of the whole coin I needed. P.S. my other 6 1982s weigh 3.05 - 3.11 grams Edited by Ali83 08/21/2024 01:05 am Report this Post to the Staff

Yes, that's a large date, but there might be something else interesting going on with the coin. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
