Thanks cl, I have been doing a whole lot of searching. lol :D The altered penny is a 1982D,so I think it's a zinc penny? I think someone rubbed it with sandpaper becuase the memorial is not raised as it is in a regular penny. It's amazing what people do to money and time it must take to make some of these alterations. LOL

Congrats on the silver and wheaties. 8) Looks like the hard work is still paying off. I've seen a penny or two that way, guess someone likes the two-tone color. :)
