Welcome to CT, Ginny! Both are large date and worth 1 cent. Was there a particular question you had about them?

 

@paddyman98 is the guru on 1982D cents.

 

Welcome to CT but those look like spenders to me.

 

No. Thank you so very much

 

Sorry. It seems that I have lost my reading glasses..

Maybe if you look at these pictures you can easily tell the difference

 

Thank you

 

Those are definitely both large dates. Now, the only debate is if they are zinc or copper.

 

They both weigh 3.1g

 

...so they are both copper. They also look to be AU58 and are red brown color. Others would say they have no value and to spend them. IMO, they could be put in flips and saved for giving to Young Numismatists, possibly a son/daughter, grandkids...niece/nephew...they have survived 38 years and in good condition...Spark

 

Thank you. Yeah I’ll probably do that. My youngest son is very interested in collecting coins. Thank you for the information.
