[QUOTE="Coinman1974, post: 5202768, member: 12193"]Hello everyone, i am curious as I just recently heard of the 1983 Copper penny, then this morning was informed of the 1989 and 1990 Copper penny, possibly from both mints. The 1983 I have found a lot of info on. Appears legit. However I have been very unsuccessful in getting any information on the 1989 & 1990 Copper pennies. Can any one share any insight into this? The little information I know.. The 1983 Copper was a mint error, and I believe in the Philadelphia & Denver Mints. I have heard that the Denver Mint error is way more rare the Philadelphia, even though both are extremely rare. Denver I have been told has much better quality control then Philadelphia. The normal 1983 Philadelphia and Denver Pennies should weight 2.5 Grams, where as copper pennies weight 3.0, indicating the error penny. The 1983 Copper has brought quite a nice premium, over 5 figures if I am not mistaken, due to it s rarity. So with that said, is there such a coin as the 1989 and 1990 Copper pennies?[/QUOTE]
