Ohhhhhh, now you want to talk SURVIVORS, as in, "yeah, it looks pretty good"? Yeah, they're pretty much butt ugly.
You need a better scale. That is not showing 3.0 g, it is showing 3 g. We have no idea what the decimal point is. The scale appears to be no more precise than 1 g. So a 2.5 g zinc cent would also show 3 g on the scale. Try putting a later date Lincoln cent on the scale and see. All of the cents after 1982 are copper plated zinc see if they don't read 3 g as well.
