First make sure it's real. Tons of fake ones were made so you could easily have a counterfeit coin. Try sticking it to a magnet. If it sticks it's fake if doesn't then you should try getting it authenticated by a 3rd party grading service. If it comes back real then it would be best to get a hold of some the biggest coin collectors in country. Doing a few Google searches can get this.

Is a copper penny of 1943 higher value than a penny of 2010 or a lower value?
HIGHER!!! It is worth $150,000!!!!CorrectionThe above response refers to an AMERICAN copper penny dated 1943. All Canadian cents dated 1943 were made of copper, while 2010 cents are copper-plated steel. 1943 Canadian cents are worth around 50 cents to a dollar depending on condition, so they're certainly worth more than 2010 cents but not a huge amount. To explain the value of a 1943 AMERICAN copper cent, the US Mint switched to zinc-plated steel that year because copper was needed for making ammunition. A few copper blanks left over from 1942 were accidentally mixed in and were struck with the 1943 date. These coins are very rare and can sell for the amount quoted above.
