<p>[QUOTE="Mountain Man, post: 4924261, member: 94733"]Jessica, please remember that late 1982 the mint switched to using zinc planchets coated in a thin layer of copper. Cents dated from then until now have all types of damage. Your coin is losing the copper under the device LIBERTY and will soon start to rot to nothing.</p><p>Along with others suggestions above, I suggest you study the actual minting process of just how coins are minted. That should help you eliminate PMD (Post Mint Damage) from possible errors. Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
