Looks like a copper plated zinc cent with plating worn off in places. What is the weight?

 

Not silver. Cents struck after 1982 were made on copper plated zinc planchets. What you have here is a cent that the copper plating has rubbed off of and is exposing the zinc. Not an error just damaged.

 

Thank You..the weight not sure 100% but it like 2.

my mistake i meant silver in color or possibly a dime

 

2.49 the weight and you see the thin layer something silver in color im not saying it is actual silver the color silver in the copper and zinc

 

The weight is within expected tolerance of 2.50g +/- 0.10g. The silver color is zinc. The plating is only 8 microns thick, so it doesn't take much to wear it away.

 

I just pulled this out of the change in my pocket. Plating has worn in a similar manner.

 

Lol. Clearly a damaged copper-plate zinc cent. Spender.

 

suck on it if you have a head cold.



..... lol. Zinc interferes with RSV replication on the cellular level.

 

It's a dryer coin.. Not rare at all

Doesn't matter really - it's just a damaged cent.

 

Wrong.. It IS a dryer coin.. Even Fred Weinberg said it is. As always. I try to help you but you Love to shoot me down and say idiotic comments. How will you learn if you don't accept what the specialists and experts tell you?

 

You want him to go back to using the word DISCOVERY COIN? Maybe he can use his old user name too.
