A few years back my grandfather told me about his coin collection and I have been bugging him to show me ever since. This afternoon he informed me that some guy is comming to buy the whole lot, my heart sank. I was in awe when I finnally saw what he had but I noticed among a box of normal looking pennies there was a steel one. From collecting as a little kid I am aware of the 1943 Steel pennies but this one was a 1962. I'm sure there are more than this one but I was just wondering if anyone knew why they made a steelie in 1962.

Thanks

P.S. I wish he would just let me have the collection because of the history it has not because it is worth a lot. I could've spent days looking through those coins. They were just amazing.
