<p>[QUOTE=&quot;V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2516332, member: 71723&quot;]No, that is NOT the case, to my recollection, and now re-research, too. All the proof cents from 2009 AND all the satin finish cents from the 2009 mint sets were bronze (which is 95% copper - SAME THING!). The non-satin circulation strikes are all copper plated zinc, and ONLY those.</p><p><br /></p><p>The rarest type are the satin finish bronze versions from the mint set, all of which number 784,614. The proofs all number just shy of 3 million each. And apart from the reverse DESIGNS all 2009 proof cents are identical in alloy to any other.</p><p><br /></p><p>A full set of 2009 cents compromises 20 coins; 8 Zincolns (4 designs x 2 mints), 8 Satin finish bronze (same 4 x 2), and four proofs (4 designs PERIOD).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
