<p>[QUOTE="BlondeWhit, post: 3711988, member: 99159"]So I've got a penny that is probably a large date but its a littlesmooshed down it looks like. Most all 1982 large dates sorta look a little smooshed anyways to me lol but the reason im questioning it more this time is because in addition to that, it looks like a DDR. From what ive heard and seen about the very rare 1982 small date DDR is that because of the class of doubling, it can be seen mostly on the "E Pluribus Unum" and less noticed on all the lettering closer out to the rim. This penny seems alot like that to but its not in the best shape which makes it a little harder to tell. </p><p>There looks like there might be some doubling on the obverse side as well and i could be wrong nut it looked like maybe just machine doubling? </p><p>Last thing though is that the famous rare DDR penny I mentioned above is zinc but this one weighs in at 3.08 so its obviously copper.</p><p>Lol, im stumped. Can someone help me with any advice please?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
