    Looks like it's a copper 90% off center cent.

    (it would weigh 3.1 grams/48 grains if it's pre-83 copper)

    It does weigh 3.1 is a 90% a little extreme and what's it worth

    It's called a "real" mint error. icon_smile_thumbsup.gif Can I ask where you found it?

    It's a great Mint error! Where did you find it? It's a 90-95% off center strike.
