IF the main reason you buy a scale is for the Lincoln 82's, you could have saved money. Almost anyone here has been made aware of the famous, simple, easiest scale and you make it yourself.
Take a popsicle or ice creame bar stick, pencil, glue and your almost there. Best if the pencil is a 6 sided one. Place the stick on the pencil so it balances with a drop of glue at that point so it stays in place. When dry place any
Lincoln Cent dated
after 1982 at the far end of one side of the stick. now place any 1982
Lincoln Cent on the far opposite side. If the 82 drops down fast, it is Copper. If it sort of lingers or balances, it is the Zinc ones.
Simple and you get to eat what was on your scale before you made it.

And it is resuable forever and batteries not required.
