1982 D SD Bronze Penny

For those of the world that don't know 1982 was a transitional period for the penny. There were 7 different mints that year. Variables being the material the planket was made of, large and small date mark and the mint mark. Well last year another version of the coin was discovered by a Minnesota collector. NGC slabbed it calling it an error coin. Well that's been the only one to surface so far. Well I believe I found one of its friends and I wanted some advice on what to do with it as far as authenticating it and possibly selling it. Anyone???

Picture of your supposed find?

 

I couldn't hear you furry...

 

That better?

 

There it is

 

You have a large date 1982D cent. Congratulations on your 1 cent windfall. Try not to spend it all in one place.

 

Lmfao.

 

Ummm...what is a planket? Sorry Joe, had to do it.

 

Lol. It's the blank piece of metal that coins are stamped on.

 

*planchet

 

That's worth 1 cent.
1982-D large date copper circulated and scratched.
They made 17 billion cents that year, but everyone has a
1982-D SMALL DATE copper. One has been found, and there are probably
others. But you could look at 1982 cents every second for the rest of your life
and not even get through 2 billion of them.

 

Hope this helps:

 

Wow. That puts a lot in perspective Michael. Finding something like that is like finding a piece of Pluto on Mercury.

 

Thank you. Yes those pictures are more identifiable then most I've seen.

 

Don't forget the 1982-S proof. That's 8 varieties.

 

Is the 1982-S only a small date?
NOW YOU ARE MAKING ME USE GOOGLE.

 

Oh it is a Large date. I believe these are only copper.
