what do you mean by pre 82 copper pennies Mark? We have Euro cent since 2001, so I could only use them.

@Drachenfrau - the reference to pre-82 copper pennies is for US coins. In 1982 the US cut back on the copper they used in pennies and started using more zinc. This causes the pennies to be softer and when squished come out just a tad longer than the pre-82 cents. Many collectors prefer the pre-82 cents in the way the way they squish and hold the image.

@coolcamaro Thank you for the explanation! :-) I wanted to get sure.
