Best Answer

That's an EXTREMELY broad question because cents have been struck for over 200 years at 3 mints, so there are thousands of different types available. To name just a few of the more famous rarities:

1793 chain-link reverse

1909-S Indian head

1856 flying eagle

1877 Indian head

1909-S VDB Lincoln

and these error coins

1922 "plain"

1943 copper

1944 steel

1955 double die

Check the prices at a site such as www.coinclub.com/prices/, for example.

What dates are rare for South African pennies?

None of the British South African Pennies are particularly rare (those dated 1923 through 1928, and 1933 and 1942 without a star at the end, are the most dear - at about US$3 to US$4 in Fine condition - nothing else is worth more than US$1.00 in Fine condition). Among Republic of South Africa one cent coins (not, strictly speaking, "pennies"), the only one worth more than US$1-2 is the 1965 with the name of the country in Afrikaans ("Suid-Afrika"), which is worth about US$100.00 in Very Fine condition and US$300.00 in Uncirculated condition.
