If a penny is silver in color, it is probably made out of steel coated zinc. They were issued during the year 1943 in WWII due to the shortage of copper. If the dealer says it's metal composition is silver, it's probably fake and only worth it's silver content. But if it's a steel coated zinc penny, it will be worth about $0.50 in Good condition, about $1.50 in Fine condition, about $25 in MS-55, and $50 in MS-65 condition. But don't be so sure about all the amounts, as I'm a novice collector.

∙ 13y agoThat indicates that they were made at the Denver Mint. If you live near Denver ("near" being a very loose term), then it's no big deal. However, if you live close to Philadelphia or somewhere in the northeast, then while it is much harder to find one of those types of pennies it's still a penny.

∙ 11y agoIf it's dated 1968 or later with an S, then it's a proof cent, minted for collectors and sold for a bit over face value, though nothing that recent is especially valuable. For older coins, value is determined by both the date and mint mark, so to get a specific value, you'll need to ask about a specific coin.

If the pennies are brand new (like grandpa got them from a bank and socked them away) you can get several dollars for them depending on date and mintmark. If they are just pennies taken from circulation they typically run at most 2 cents each. One big exception is the 1931 S . Even worn it could be worth over $50. You might also get a dollar or so for a worn 1931 D and 1933 D .
How can I find pennies?
You could spend years looking through bank rolls and never find anything worth more than a buck or two.

You would have to get lucky and catch some rolls that somebody (like a little old lady) has brought out from some stash and taken to the bank.
