    @James Keller
    No mint mark means it was minted at the Philadelphia Mint. They didn't use the P mint mark on the Cent until last year 2017 and only for that year.
    The issue in the letter E sounds like a worn die strike.

    @furryfrog02 - yes! 1 Cent

    Keep them all until you have time to go through all of them and find any errors or other items you may want to search for. Weight the 82's and 83's and ohhhh the fun you can have!!!!!!

    While 2 1982-D small date copper cents have surfaced (out of billions) it's really not practical to even look for it, despite what You Tube coin videos say.
    That being said, there have been more off metal 1983 cents (copper 3.1 grams, instead of zinc 2.5 grams) found, and it's easy just to weigh them, and then put them in the spend pile.

    First, welcome to Coin Talk! Second, if you have something you want help with it is suggested that you start a new thread by itself. You don't want to hijack another thread and the likely hood that you will get your question answered well is even better! Photos are needed to help with your question so start your own thread, post good photos and we'll go from there.

    Without photos, it doesn't exist so it's worth nothing. As Bambam said, start your own post with good photos.

    I have what seems to be a silver, no mint mark, Lincoln penny. I used a magnet and it sticks to it. Is it worth anything?
