[QUOTE="BarryZhenny, post: 618641, member: 19119"]The 1974 penny is a more semigloss finish ... and the 1987d is a darker gray ... I assume the second one is dirtier as it is more worn. looking at them the 1974 appears to be smoother in the finish as the 1987d appears as if it was a rougher finish. I understand you need to see pictures ... and I will try my best to take some. I have them in 2x2 cards and I will take them out and try to take pictures of them. Oh yeah, I took them to a local jeweller and we weighed the coins. I am not sure that the scale was very accurate, but the 1974 weighed about 3.2g (heavier, right?) and the 1987d weighed 2.6g. I do appreciate the input in help. I will look into taking pictures in the next day or two. I am disabled and do as I can. I really do appreciate your input as I have been stumped with them. I was sure that it was not the aluminum one for 1974 and that was why I took it to the jeweller ... hahha.[/QUOTE]
