The pennies are zinc 2.5 and copper for the other 2. In 1982 they switched from copper to zinc towards the end of the year. As for the gold...
Do the prices drop when the value of gold and silver falls?
The weight is correct. However, if the clad layer was removed post mint, that will also give a correct weight. I can't tell, but I would guess...
