Pre June 1982 the penny was 95% copper 5 % zinc after June of 82 they were 95% zinc 5% copper. So it don't take much filing and your in junk metal that don 't gather light like pre june 82 pennies. Using indian head pennies was consider cool by a few but really a waste of a collector coin. I left the rounded edge frt and rear but file cut the sloped top with a 45 degree angle on the back just like the old but good Redfield Sourdough patridge style frt. Right at 345" high off the barrel. Mb
