I suggest you study up on what you actually have. None of that stuff sounds "rare". Step one: Old does not equal rare. If you have questions about individual coins, feel free to post some clear close up pictures here and we will gladly help you out.

Whuuuut?

 

Cents were struck on copper planchets until mid 1982. So that would be correct.

 

Well they stopped making copper pennies in the late 50s or early 60s and i have three 70s pennies that are copper...the zinc pennies weigh 2.5 where thw copper pennies 3.1

 

in 1982 they transitioned over to the zinc core, copper plated cents.
Everything before then were small copper rounds ...

 

The 1917 cent is worth a dollar or two.

 

Well how come some are zinc and some are copper....and can you explain the weight differences

 

Do you have front and back images of the nickels?

 

I can't watch.

 

Here are some pics of front and back

 

how have you tested them for being zinc ?

Circulation Wear can reduce weight. It's like if you go on a diet, you lose weight (hopefully).

 

you do have one war nickel

 

The pennies...well from what everyones told me the zinc pennies weigh 2.5 and the copper pennies weigh 3.1

 

How are we able to tell that...and is it worth anything
