Is this normal to weigh this 3.00-3.01? 2.50 is usually the weight but figured id ask if that is around normal

It's a Large Date, not a Small Date. https://www.lincolncentresource.com...es/1982.html

Large date. Keep on searching.


ADDED: As to your question about the weight, it should be 3.11 grams and is within tolerance for the large date copper cent. There could be loss of copper due to damage too, maybe explaining it being a little light.

You want the small date copper minted in Denver.

Funny how you post up a TINY image of the important side, then a nice large one of the reverse (the side that don't really matter in this particular instance.

So I'm going to err on the side of caution and say that this is a large date Denver cent.
