[QUOTE="Coin99, post: 2767470, member: 88073"]Hello! I am pretty new to collecting and studying coins, but I have an inquiry about the value of a certain penny I found in a box of coins. It is an American Penny made in 1982, which seems to have an error where the pictures on each end is oppositely flipped from the other side. I believe it is a zinc penny, as it makes a "thud" sound upon dropping rather than a higher pitched sound compared to copper. Upon further inspection, there was no "d" under the year. The only thing I am not sure about is whether the year print is large or small, as I simply cannot make it out with my eye. The condition is rather worn. If anybody could give me some insight on this coin, I would really appreciate it. Thanks! Please excuse poor image quality, my phone is not a very good camera.[/QUOTE]
