1982 Copper Lincoln Cent, Small date

Did you know the U.S. Mint produced seven different Lincoln cents for circulation in 1982? Rising production costs made it necessary to switch to a copper-plated zinc alloy partway through the year. And with both large and small date varieties coming out of the Philadelphia and Denver Mints, coinage history was made! This copper alloy small date variety from Philadelphia makes an exciting addition to your collection.
