<p>[QUOTE=&quot;furryfrog02, post: 1787926, member: 41219&quot;]Hey everyone, </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is probably a stupid thread but I figured I&#039;d ask.&nbsp; I was going through my wheaties last night and this 1949d came out looking small compared to the others.&nbsp; I threw it on the scale and it weighted 2.68 grams.&nbsp; It is also smaller in diameter than a normal cent. There are some dings on it but besides that it seems like a normal cent.&nbsp; I know a typical copper cent is 3.11 grams. I&#039;m thinking that 2.68 is well below mint standards.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So the question is - why is it smaller/lighter than other cents?&nbsp; I don&#039;t think the dings could knock that much weight off.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://imageshack.us/a/img854/3298/kjyz.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://imageshack.us/a/img209/6715/aehq.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://imageshack.us/a/img12/7523/cx43.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
