As a subject matter expert in numismatics and metrology, I can provide you with the precise information regarding the weight of a penny.
In the United States, the ONE CENT coin, commonly known as a penny, has undergone several changes in its specifications over the years. However, as of my last update, a standard US penny weighs 2.5 grams. This weight is for the current composition of the penny, which is primarily made of zinc with a copper plating.
The weight of a penny can be important for various reasons, such as ensuring the accuracy of coin-operated machines or for collectors who want to verify the authenticity of a coin.
