<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 2302565, member: 15199&quot;]Weigh it first. The 1974 Aluminum cent weighs less that a gram , 0.937 grams, where as the pre-82 cents weigh approx. 3.1 grams&nbsp; and post 1982 cents weigh 2.5, all with slight tolerance. The most likely scenario is a zinc coated copper cent. There are literally thousands of these produced yearly in beginning chemistry classes. After a few days of &#039;silver or gold&#039; cents, they forget and spend it. </p><p><a href="http://www.instructables.com/id/Make-Gold-And-Silver-Pennies/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.instructables.com/id/Make-Gold-And-Silver-Pennies/" rel="nofollow">http://www.instructables.com/id/Make-Gold-And-Silver-Pennies/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
