[QUOTE="sehvur, post: 1515860, member: 39836"]I was at the gas station getting cigarettes and noticed a penny out of the bunch was grey, I'd say it's uniformly grey but i'm no coin collector so i'm looking for help figuring out more about this penny. Info in case the pics are eligible: year: 1968 mint stamp?: D Notes: -this penny weighs 3.10g, other pennies weighed between 2.45g and 2.52g -"liberty" and "in god we trust" seems to be slightly touching the edge more so than other pennies i'm comparing it to, as if the front is larger than normal. -the back seems to sit withing the ridge properly. Protrudes more than a normal penny in my opinion. -The edges and figures seem to protrude more than a "normal" penny's. -doesn't seem to be very worn for a 1968 penny that i got from a fast-food place or gas station.
