What is the value of old penny postcards?
That's an extremely broad question. You need to know what their dates are, how worn they are, and for cents dated 1908 and later, where they were minted. US cents (assuming you're not referring to British pennies) have been minted for almost 220 years and at 3 different mints which is why it's not possible to provide a simple answer. Most cents minted in the last 50 years are only worth a penny, but older ones can be worth tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. Go to Ebay type in what you have (date, mint mark, condition) and compare the prices, its a good guide for someone inexperienced.
