I saw this quickly, after comparing the dates. It’s one of the most prevalent damage issues in today’s coinage. I also agree #2 has die...

@Kristine Garrant …Make sure you get the right edition…the different parts are divided into specific groups. When I bought mine in 2014, it was...
We are all on the same page now. What’s important to remember is why you should weigh every 1983 cent: quite a few copper planchets remained in...
Make sure your scale is calibrated correctly. The tolerance for zinc cents is .1 gram , meaning your coin on a calibrated scale is only...
2 questions: Does it match anything listed at VV or Wexler, and what does it weigh? @Singletonsam

@Mountain Man …so, if you read the info at Wexler provided by @Danomite you will see this coin is found once for every 482 that were struck,...
I always weigh this date…I believe 15 or so have been found on copper planchets.
Surface tells me this is Cu-Zi…weight should be 2.5g…and if that is a plating blister, for sure a Zincoln. Good strike and condition otherwise…a...
