2 Wheat Pennies Worth a Fortune!

The US Mints made a big error in both 1943 and 1944. Some 1943 pennies were struck on lefover copper planchets instead of steel and some 1944 pennies were struck on leftover steel planchets instead of copper. There are 40 or so known 1944 Steel cents and 20 or so known 1943 Copper cents. Be sure to check you wheat cents to see if you have either of these pennies worth a fortune!

I know someone who found a 1944 steel cent and sold it for $65, 000 dollars

[RileyV]

I had a 1942 n 1943 penny. My coins went missing at a friend of mine.

[tonymartinez]

Hello. I have a 1962 still. Any idea how much?

[EsequielRodriguez-fezd]

What happens if u have them were would u go to check them out

[janicamendenhall]

I have a silver colored 1943 penny. But i get conflicting answers. Are they worth anything more than $300 ? And how do you tell difference from zinc and steel? Or was it a mix of both? Mine is still in decent shape but i think duller with clean lines. Its been a minute since i took it out but im not 💯 on the duller part.

Hi I have a 1944 penny and I don't know who to trust to have it look at but I don't see a mint mark there's no d or p what should I do

[jclikespam]

Great information and haven't found any, yet!

[williammielenz]

I'm going to scan my Penney's with a magnet

[jbsang]

I took him to a few coin collectors and they told me that they weren't worth anything!!!

[Swaggerjuice]

Would it be an easy test to just check all the wheats with a magnet?

[Cassandrawalker]

I have one of them and how much is it worth

[JoshuaRoss-xy]

I’m pretty sure I have at least one of those, but I was told it’s not worth anything

[seanboden]

What the easiest way to see if a 1943 has been rezinc plates?
