Yes. The correct legal term would be "a half-cent piece".
If a penny has no mint mark, it typically means it was produced by the Philadelphia Mint. Mint marks indicate where a coin was minted, and coins from the Philadelphia Mint, the oldest U.S. Mint facility, do not have a mint mark.

This is a penny made by the US mint in 1898.
No such coins were ever made by the US mint. See the related question below for info on 1917 US pennies.
Nope. You have a novelty item made by cutting apart a penny and a dime, then hollowing out the back of the penny and popping the dime-half into it like the lid on a sandwich box.
The first US "penny's" were struck at the Philadelphia Mint in 1793.
2002 mint sets in original package have a value of $15.00 to $20.00. The penny has never had a P mint mark.

No silver 1 cent coins have ever been struck by the US Mint. So no none are out there.
No. Not a single US coin made the US mint is 100% silver. 1969 US half dollar are made of a 40% silver.

The US mint did not use mint marks on the 1965 half dollar coin.
