It does have the snowman 8, and is far away from the rim. The 2 marker is odd as it is not very curvy.If it weighs 2.5g it's zinc. They made 17...
Title is incorrect.
Actually it would be 3.10 grams which is the weight of a copper penny. Since the 1983's are supposed to be zinc, several 1983 cents have turned...
I don't think the magnet test is relevant, as the plating metal could have magnetic elements. It's not counterfeit. It's a quarter. If you thought...
I don't think it is higher than 30. There are areas of concern, folds, staining etc. While it looks nice for the date, someone tried to improve...
Obverse very circulated. Reverse a little better. Probably cleaned. Less than a dollar.(.50-.75) I make it about VG-10. In VF 20 it's $1.50 so...
I only clicked once.
Obsolete.

Oh it's a great coin. I would just like to see some clearer photos.
While I may not agree on an XF 40 grade, sometimes there are series that are more leniently graded, especially the key dates. I can't tell about...
There's no coating of zinc mixture. The plating is copper. The zinc is on the inside. It looks normal to me.
It's supposed to weigh 2.5 grams with a +/- tolerance of .10 making the normal range 2.40-2.60. While it is slightly over weight, it generally has...
Some people collect. It's probably in the genetic nature of a human being. But other people hoard. One is acceptable and one is not. If you don't...
Hand cut from a sheet. The high serial is the giveaway. It's worth $2.
Been seeing a lot of these posts. When was the last time a coin had this error? I don't recall any modern ones that do. I remember the 1955 nickel...
Yes I agree. It's just a 1. There's no 2 there.
Separate names with a comma.
