<p>[QUOTE=&quot;foreverEBG, post: 2076158, member: 73517&quot;]So a respected &amp; elder member of the local coin community said there is a rare variety of 95% copper lincoln memorial penny. Supposedly it was an error from when a mint employee fed a copper planct in stead of the zinc-copper alloy that they were transitioning to that year. Is this a real variety or is hejsu messing wit me like when you do flooring and tell someone to get the tile strecther? This variety is not found in any of the guides i own. Does any member have or have held/owned one of these. The supposed way to tell is by weighing them. A regular copper plated zinc will weigh 2.5g whereas the 95% copper will be 3.5g. I feel like a crazy person looking for this coin...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
