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.
it is not rare enough to have any value [will have value in about 3 years]
The coin was made in 2009 but shows an 1809 date because it's a commemorative penny minted in honor of Abraham Lincoln's bicentenary. In years to come this penny may be valuable but as of 2014 this penny is only worth one cent.
No one knows, to many variables.
Well, Based on years of studying the 1813 one penny token, I have deduced that it is worth around $2.35. Yes, that's two dollars and thirty five cents.
One cent. 1971D pennies are so common they will not be worth a premium until many more years have passed.
Due to the recent market uprising the penny will be worth approximately 50k in 20 years and also since they do not produce them anymore.

$0.05 i found one at the 'take-a-penny' bowl at the store and found out if its in good shape and is over 30 years old it can be worth $20.00
It might be in an other couple of hundred years but for now it is more likely to be seen as outdated information.
Before the Lincoln penny (1909 - when he would have been 100 years old) it was a Native American.

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 By 1984 inflation had made the coins almost worthless and they were withdrawn from circulation.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.

About $130.00 and worth every penny
Nothing, none were made. Your coin is plated. It would be "cents-less" to make a penny out of silver because it would be worth more than a dollar.

The 1943 penny was not made with copper, like all other years. Copper was funneled to the War Department so the 1943 penny was made from steel and other compounds.
