Do you have Canadian cent and want to know its value? Leave a comment
Well it has not been that long since I got a 2010 United States cent and just as quickly I find its Canadian counterpart. Sure it is common and taste nothing of ham or bacon but it is new.

I know since 1999 these cents have been made of copper plated steel or zinc. A quick test to find out which you have is to see if it's magnetic, the steel version is magnetic. A more complicated way to test is to weigh it. The zinc is lighter at 2.25 grams while the steel is 2.35 grams. The one pictured above is exactly 2.25 grams and non-magnetic so it is zinc at its core.
There are other ways to check like mintmarks and Queen's head but with so many varieties it's easier to stick a fridge magnet on it to see what you have.
Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 1 Cent / CanadaYear: 2010 RCM Logo (Non-Magnetic)
Mintage: Not yet known.
Metal: Copper Plated Zinc
Value: $0.01 in F

ReplyDeleteWhat denomination?
Both copper-plated zinc and steel have been used for pennies since 2002 (which means there were two kinds of pennies for each year). I haven't found a magnetic 2010 penny however. Perhaps the mint is settled on using zinc?

ReplyDeleteApparently both types are still being made, others have found the steel kinds but I have not.
Hopefully the mintage will be published soon.

ReplyDelete1995 penny, that one of the 9 is not the same as the other
ReplyDelete--Sounds damaged, no extra value.
1936 penny tha the (in) IN GOD WE TRUST, is not there
--Struck Through Grease error, no extra value.
i havea copper onecent 1943-d and steelonecent 1943 and it has the mint marc
ReplyDeletecopper onecent 1943-d
ReplyDelete--Your pictures and video are too blurry.
But the shininess suggest that it is a fake. It should be a dark brown or deep red not polished.
Still the easiest way to tell is weigh it, use a 0.01 gram scale.
steelonecent 1943 and it has the mint marc about $0.30
