<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Martha Lynn, post: 8250996, member: 101796&quot;][ATTACH=full]1453646[/ATTACH] That year the 1 cent u.s. coin experienced a &#039;transition year&#039;. The metallic content percentages were flopped around quite a bit. This changed the weight of the planchet. Between the mints involved and the new weight, old weight planchets as I understand it, let loose 7 different mm&#039;s with this weight, mm&#039;s with that weight. No biggy except for a specific combination of those features on the 1982 D small date weighing 3.11 gm . I think they have found two to date. I should have noted the new weight beginning &quot;83 and tail end of &quot;82 would be 2.5 grm.&nbsp; One more edit. to answer your question. Your 1982 D apparently has the large date, that is why it weighs that .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
