Have you weighed it?

 

I have not...i do not have a scale of the sort

 

Is it thicker all around or just on one side?

Can you post pictures of the edge next to another Cent?

 

All around...

 

Ok i will try

 

See how thick it is?

 

Wow.. Yes I see it
Interesting!

 

Sure is...wish i could weigh it at this point...

 

Pls..lend me your professional thoughts and what i should do with this possible find...Thank you in advance. Im sure more are out there.

 

I just opened one of my uncirculated W Cents
W is 1.73 mm thick and 2.56 g
Mint cent is 1.50 mm thick and 2.52 g
This is just a sample of 1 but all of mine look thicker. It looks like the rims are deeper than typical.​

 

Sorry about the confusion with my post. I hit the wrond key too often.

It is because W cents are proof and not made for circulation like any other coin.

 

Thanks for showing us the Proof!

 

Just to be clear..this is not a proof coin i am soeaking of...it is the uncirculated penny that came with the uncirculated set

 

You get a pass this time, but the next time the 'spell-check' cops are going to arrest your burro........

 

I was comparing an "uncirculated" 2019 W to a typical "uncirculated" modern cent. Are you saying that the uncirculated specimens of the West Point cents are really not a typical uncirculated cent?
