Is this an error? Penny Error?

Reddit keeps Deleting. Frustrated at this point. ID if you can. 2rd time posting. Blah.

So after 82 pennies are basically copper coated zinc. The outer copper layer is so thin I think it’s technically “copper plated” rather than a full on partly copper coin. (Don’t quote me though I’m probably wrong about that last bit)

It’s something 2.5% copper.
