I think joefinds posted one and was told if it is one it's worth around $1,000.00. If any one knows of a web site that covers this topic please let me know. Thanks all, John1 Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 12/03/2009 10:40 am Good Question. Not sure if I've heard about that or not. I've read about the 74 Aluminum Cent, 1943D Copper Cent, 1944 Steel Cent, 1944D Steel Cent and the 1959D Wheat cent. Just not a 1983 Copper Cent but probably is one, maybe.

oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 12/04/2009 08:54 am I don't see why it would not be possible. A stray (stuck) copper planchet in the hopper for the next year (although zincs were being punched out since mid 1982). I have also heard that the Mint used to (still?) makes coins for other countries, possibly a planchet from one of the them? If you feel strongly about it, have it authenticated by a TPG company. I am pretty sure they could give you some advice over the phone or an email to tell you what they could do for you. success, Report this Post to the Staff
