[QUOTE="Snowman, post: 538340, member: 10480"]here is some more information the mint made 1982 pennies at the 4 mints - Phil, Denver, West Point and San Fransico. So actually no one knows when the switch was done. So the 1.5 billion pennies minted at San Fransico are probably still on the west coast making you think they traveled from Phil. The zinc pennies from West Point are mixed in with the Phil & San Fran cents so no one will ever know. here is the rest of the story from David Lange at NGC [URL]http://www.ngccoin.com/news/viewarticle.aspx?NewsletterNewsArticleID=195[/URL] here is the 1982 mintage for all 4 mints [IMG]http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa51/pennyfinder24/HPIM0601.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
