The most rare and valuable American penny is the 1943 bronze Lincoln cent. It is estimated that only a few of these coins were minted in error, as the U.S. Mint was supposed to be producing coins using zinc-coated steel that year due to metal shortages during World War II. These rare 1943 bronze cents can fetch prices of over $1 million at auctions.

The 1944 steel penny is worth between $75,000 and $110,000. This steel penny was minted by mistake and there were not a lot of them around.
