Best Answer

What you have is a mint token struck on a penny-sized blank. These are included in the uncirculated coin sets issued each year, one for Denver and one for Philadelphia. 1789 is the year that the Treasury Department was established, not the date the token was made.

Sometimes people break up the sets and the tokens slip into circulation because they look like pennies. However, they aren't collectible because they don't have a mintage year on them and they all look alike.

Are pennies with an S or D worth more?

The "S" and the "D" are called mint marks which identify which US Mint produced the coin. Coins with no mint mark prior to 1980 were minted at Philadelphia. Just having an "S" or a "D" mint mark does not mean the coin is worth more. The value of a coin is generally determined by the demand collectors and investors have for the coin. The more people who want to own it, the more it is worth.
