    I'm in the west coast, I have a few 82s.
    82-D small date Zinc
    82 small date Copper
    82-D large date Copper (4)

    I'm trying to collect all 8 varieties...almost halfway there. I had an 82 small date Zinc but have misplaced it.

    Thanks Willy, I don't have a PO Box but I really appreciate it! I think mine is just in one of the other bags of my 80s cents. I'm just being lazy going through them right now. Thanks again tho, that's a really nice gesture.

    [​IMG] I have a 1982 penny not in the best shape. It weighs 2.5 grams. Is it worth anything?

    Yes.. 1 Cent
    The weight of 2.5 grams means it was struck on a Copper Plated Zinc Cent.
    All Cents minted after mid 1982 weigh exactly the same. So you have a normal Cent.

    There are 7 varieties, unless you are including the 1982-S large date proof.
    The 1982-D small date copper would be difficult to include in this set, as there
    are only 2 known out of approx 1 billion. There's no separate mintage for the large date and small date 1982. But the change came at the end of the year and a guess of 1 billion Denver small and 2 billion Philly small should be very close.
    10,712,525,000 Philly total
    6,012,979,368 Denver total
