Here’s How To Spot It – This Penny In Circulation is Worth $85,000
Do you have a valuable penny hiding in plain sight? Some coins can be worth far more than their face value, like the rare 1943 copper wheat penny. While most 1943 pennies were made of steel due to World War II, a few copper blanks mistakenly entered production, making these pennies highly sought after.
In mint condition, these coins can fetch up to $85,000, while those in lesser condition still average around $60,000. However, beware of counterfeits. Fraudsters often alter 1948 pennies or coat steel ones in copper. To verify authenticity, use a magnet—genuine copper won’t stick, while steel with copper coating will.
