    First, welcome to the neighborhood, @Greg H !

    What makes you think it is worth more than 1c?

    By the way, it isn't necessary to use the poll on every thread. It is strictly optional, but once you start it, you must complete it.

    I dunno... I say "coin", but I'm considering changing my mind to "1982".

    Maybe someone's birth year 1982, I Know Mets won World Series in 1986 so 1982 could be sport's related

    This is a trick question. It depends. Does it weigh 3.1 grams or 2.5 grams?

    If it weighs 2.5 grams it's worth 1 cent.
    If it weighs 3.1 grams it's worth 1.7 cents.

    so the question, is it 97.5% zinc or 95% copper

    It looks a regular 1982 large date cent in uncirculated condition. I'm guessing copper since the copper plated zinc tend to have plating bubbles (1982 was a transition year). The mint made Billions (with a "B") of these so even though it may seem unusual to see such a new looking cent 35 years after it was minted, it is only worth face value.
