But that year they made both kinds. So there are a few 1983 and later years accidentally minted from left over copper planchets that were either laying around in a bin, or whatever and those are rare. In 1982 they made copper and zinc. BUT the 1982-D small date was only supposed to be made in zinc. A few were made on the old copper planchets.</p><p>1982 Philly large date zinc</p><p>1982 Philly large date copper</p><p>1982 Philly small date zinc</p><p>1982 Philly small date copper</p><p>1982 Denver large date zinc</p><p>1982 Denver large date copper</p><p>1982 Denver small date zinc</p><p>(and the 1982-S proof I think large date)</p><p>These sets can be put together from circulation, the most difficult ones to find in good condition are the Philly small date zinc and Denver small date zinc. They had problems with the new coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
