1982 (P) Lincoln Memorial Cent - Zinc Large Date - CU-1C-1982-24 Cud

Description

By the twenty-fourth entry in the 1982 Philadelphia cud census, the depth of die failure documentation for this single date-mint combination has reached a level few other Lincoln cent years can match. CU-1C-1982-24 is assigned to the Zinc Large Date subtype, and its position deep into the census reflects the continued discovery of previously undocumented die breaks by error coin specialists who methodically examine 1982 cents pulled from circulation finds, bulk purchases, and original bank-wrapped rolls. The Cuds on Coins census system provides the standardized framework that makes this cataloging possible — without a centralized registry, duplicate entries and inconsistent numbering would undermine the reliability of cud attribution across the hobby. Combined with two concurrent date styles from different obverse hubs — Large Date and Small Date — this transition produced seven recognized cent varieties for the year.
