    Alright so I know I’m going for the impossible but it seems like at least one LOOKS like it could be the one.

    Not exactly new to this, though I am new to learning of the unicorn 82 small date

    getting these pics was so damn difficult so at least don’t roast me if they’re all duds lol

    One pic is a bunch of no mint 82s, one of which seems to have some kind of damage or error (the bottom one), next to the D mint 82s

    the rest are just unusual looking and I figured I’d ask if they are anything unique.

    Lastly I have a 73 with a very raised rim - any input on the worth of this or any other errors would be appreciated

    Thank You

    Hey! You're not going to like it but there isn't anything out of the ordinary with these coins in my opinion.
    Here's the lowdown on these............1982 P & D Large and Small Dates (lincolncentresource.com)

    Edit:2 of them appear to have the top of the 8 smaller than the bottom, a thinner W and rest of lettering, as well as the 82 being similar in size.

    I’ve already come across several posts about this and just can’t tell but I figured 2 look close enough to give it a shot. Are they worth weighing?

    So zero chance? How about the significance of the 73 raised rim?

    Sure, if you don't have anywhere to go? Got a good scale?

    All of the ‘82s are large dates. These and the others do not have any value beyond face value.

    If you weigh the ‘83 and it is 3.11g then you might have something…imo…Spark

    Depends on the raise of the rim? Sometimes you'll see this from coin to coin in the processing of making Pennies.

    Yea so the scale I have sucks
    they al weigh 3g the except an occasional 4g but I don’t even know if it’s the same coin that’s resulting in the 4g lol. Need a more granular scale or a makeshift balance

    All look normal to me.

    The pics aren't bad at least.

    But nothing out of the ordinary. Are you looking for some type of error?

    You're not the only one. Why don't you start by cluing us into what this "unicorn 82 small date" is. Or is "unicorn" that a typo of some kind?

    I’ve never heard of it either but it’s probably a die crack protruding from Lincoln’s forehead. :smuggrin:
