I’ve a 1943 silver colored penny(I'm not sure if its silver or steel) and I was just wondering how much it is worth?
Answer:
What you’ve is a 1943 steel cent. During World War II, copper was needed to make shell casings for bullets. In order to conserve copper for the war effort, the government minted pennies in steel-coated zinc. They only did it for one year because the public complained about the new pennies- they were easily confused with dimes in change. They’re relatively common so only ones that are in excellent condition are worth much; most are worth no more than 15 to 25 cents.
But there’s a bid on ebay for $2.05 for a 1943 silver penny.
Answer:
1 cent
Answer:
a dollar?
