Yes that's a copper Philly 82 small date. Normal.
How come mine are smooth silver discs? Nice coin.
I go A, because B looks like it may have been cleaned at one time. And I like A more anyway even if B has not been cleaned, I prefer the color on...
It's only off center if both sides are off. If just one side is off it's MAD as Dave said. The larger the error the better. Off center is better...
It pays to go early. I was at this site which was a bust, on my way out I picked up the twenty and dug a dime in the same spot. The next spot, I...

For 1.30 you can't lose. Hard to tell from the photo, I am prob at AU.
Well the 1982 small date Philly is normal. The 2 1982-D large dates are also normal. When you say it doesn't weigh correctly, you need to post the...
Is there some kind of provenance to prove it is the first? Or it's just the first published of this kind? I don't understand. Is this the M...
I don't doubt that it has been plated, but what is the logic in plating a zinc cent with zinc? Would you plate a gold coin with gold plate? Would...
I don't think any coin has ever sold for 10 million dollars. I remember this thread. The good old days.

In 1982 they transitioned from copper to zinc. Towards the end of the year. The zinc weigh 2.5 grams and the copper 3.1. They made 17 billion...
