<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Myles, post: 3281969, member: 86376&quot;]I was going through some pennies and came across this penny. I&#039;m developing the habit of doing a quick drop test on the 1983s, and this one sounded weird. Zinc pennies normally have a very light ring when dropped, similar but not as nice as copper ones. This one has no ring at all. It&#039;s like dropping a steel coin. I put it on the scale and it weighs 2.7 grams. It&#039;s no thicker than a normal zinc penny, so I don&#039;t believe it&#039;s a rolled-thick planchet. I&#039;m trying to assume it&#039;s nothing, but got any ideas?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
