It all depends on year, mint, and condition. The most popular zinc coin year is 1943. There are many mints in the USA but 3 come to focus, 1 is Philadelphia the head quarters. 2 Denver the second main mint. and 3 San Fransisco the rarest one. When you look at your zinc penny below the year there will be a letter example D for Denver mint or S for San Fransisco now your probably think and P well no not quite because Philadelphia was head quarters since 1792 they don't need to put a letter. Dealers around the world will only accept one condition if its circulated its called VF stands for very fine there is no extremely fine like stated in first answer so if you have a 1943D its is worth 55 cents. If you have a 1943S this is worth 65 cents. Philadelphia produced about 600,000 zinc pennies and in1943 Denver produced 457,000 zinc pennies and San Francisco produced 200,000 zinc pennies so you see S for San Fransisco is the most valuable because it minted the least! the most valuable zinc penny is 1942S stated at 85 cents.
