    The steel cent, an obvious answer to the trivia that I also missed.

    You got you decimal point in the wrong place for the half dimes. The correct answers should be;
    .145 Grams Half Dime1794-1837
    .134 Grams Half Dime 1837-1853
    .124 Grams Half Dime 1853-1873

    Also, how about the One Cent 1982- present (with exceptions);
    .020 One Cent 1982- present

    BTW, that makes the zincon's copper content the second lowest of all American coins.
