Rare Penny Found!

I seemed to have found a 1982 D penny. The cool thing is, this is a “Small Date” penny. Also, while no 82 D copper small dates were thought to be minted. 3 have been found.
I found this penny. Not in great condition, but indeed is that penny. It weighs 3.1g as a copper penny should. And is small date. What should I do? How would I go about selling?

Hmmm, looks like a large date to me.

 

Oh no.. I gave you my opinion on your other thread.. I should of stated to wait to receive other opinions from other members.
@furryfrog02 does this look small or large?

 

Large date.
Sorry, worth a cent

 

I have another 1982 D penny. The date on that one and this look different

 

It's also a large date.

 

Why do they look so different

 

The right one is road rashed, Damaged

 

Look the same to me.
Both large date. Both worth 1 cent.

 

That sucks lol. 2 cent of copper at least

 

Agree, that looks like the large date.

Don't give up your quest, OP.

 

I like the positive attitude. Truly rare amongst all the people who come here thinking they have the coin that will allow them to retire to a life if luxury.

 

It's a copper alloy which makes them worth less than 2 cents. It costs money to extract the copper.

They made 17 billion cents in 1982.
AND THE HITS KEEP COMING HERE AT WABC 770 ON YOUR AM DIAL.

 

Did you check them out to see if they're "double dies?" On that one that looks like it was picked up off the pavement in a parking lot, if it was a U.S. Mint parking lot, the damage came from the U.S. Mint.

 

Hell man, i just like the little boost of energy you get from it.

 

The small date will be much farther from the rim.

 

So did I. The other thread was later and had no weight info, this one does but is wrong...it is a large date.
