Please post a more specific question including the coin's date and how worn it is. The U.S. has minted cents since 1793 so "over 100 years ago" covers a LOT of ground.

What is a hey penny?

Actually the term is ha'penny and is British slang for "half penny".England issued that coin denomination for several hundred years. Before decimalization it was worth anywhere from 1/4¢ to 1/2¢ depending on the exchange rate. So-called "new half pennies" were struck for about 12 years after England switched to decimal pounds; these were worth about 3/4¢. By 1984 inflation had made the coins almost worthless and they were withdrawn from circulation. Today the smallest coin is a 1-penny piece.
