<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clutchy, post: 2091677, member: 45040&quot;]Wiki has a &quot; Lincoln Cent Mintage Figures&quot; page. Wiki is a great website but not 100% reliable.

And the amount of tin added/not added is so small, that it has no baring on look or weight of the coin. Ultimately, despite your feelings, when zinc and/or tin is added to copper, its brass now. I feel the only reason why it was mentioned that the 1944 cents were made out of shell cases was for a patriotic influence. Thoughts?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
