<p>[QUOTE="Yooper14, post: 562504, member: 18133"]My friend came to me with a lincoln cent, 1982, that he thought was very strange. He noticed that it was very silvery, like a steel penny, but it wasn't from wwii...it was from 1982. We couldn't find that there were any strange things happening that year with pennies except maybe for a change from all copper to some nickle being added, but no other 1982 pennies seem to have this silver. We examined it closely and it doesn't appear to be a corrosion or patina. I tried my best to get a picture that would show the difference. Any ideas?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
