Verified Weight: 3.09g (Confirming the rare copper alloy for this year)
Key Errors & Features Improper Alloy Mix (Woody): Exceptional wood-grain striations across the reverse. Deep "caramel" toning with high-contrast diagonal lines running through the Memorial building.
Misaligned Die (MAD): Distinct obverse misalignment (Lincoln side) with the design hugging the rim, while the reverse remains perfectly centered.
Eye Appeal: Superior "wood" texture compared to average circulated errors. Very clean rims for a 1982 issue.
This is a "stacked" error coin from a major transitional year. The combination of the heavy woody grain and the misaligned die makes this a standout addition to any Lincoln Cent variety collection. Shipping: Will be shipped securely in a protective sleeve and padded mailer to ensure the coin arrives in the exact condition shown.
