Hi All,
This is my first post on this forum so lets see how it goes. I'm putting together 3 collections of the Lincoln Cent. One for me and one for both of my boys (ages 5 and almost 7). I came across this 1936 P cent that sounded different than all the others so decided to weigh it. It came out to 2.57-2.59 grams. I've checked it multiple times now, each time zeroing the digital scale again. I checked another 1936 P and it weighed 3.1 grams. The one that weighs 2.57-2.59 looks the same (except in a little rougher shape) as the other wheaties which is what is perplexing me. Wondering if any you can give me any suggestions. Do I send it into Wexlers? PCGS? NGC? Or is it nothing special?
