I have seen a few Jeff nickles and a few dimes that were black. Talk to an expert.

 

The last time Yooper posted was in 2009. This is what is called a nekropost.

 

Looks like the copper coating was removed. That coin is Zinc.

 

That is called Environmental Damage

 

Very interesting because I just found one also which is a 1982 and it does not appear to have any copper coloring at all and it feels too light to even be a zinc way too light to be a zinc Google update with weights and pictures here also this is kind of significant I think unless you guys both put yours back into circulation or all three of you I should say and I happen to find one of them mine is a 1982 D mint mark

Also. Pictures are needed or your Cent doesn't exist. Try to start a new separate unique thread. This one is from 2009 and most of the members shown are no longer on CoinTalk.
