These coins are a bit scarcer but still only sell for 25 to 50 cents in average condition.

Steel cents were only minted in 1943 as a way to save copper for the war effort. If your coin is silver-colored it has been plated and is only worth 1¢.
Steel cents were only made in 1943 when copper was needed for the war effort. Your coin has been plated. You can test it with a magnet - a plated cent won't stick or will only be attracted very weakly, while a real steel cent will stick firmly.

No, but the 1943 Lincoln cent was made of steel, as copper was needed for the war effort.

Cents were NEVER made out of lead. In 1943 they were made out of zinc-coated steel to free up copper for the war effort.If you have a 1943 cent it's worth 25 to 50 cents in circulated condition.If you have a 1945 cent it's made of bronze and is worth less than 3 cents.For the source and detailed information concerning this subject, click on the related links section indicated below.All 1945 cents were struck in copper.If you have a silver-colored coin dated 1945 it has been plated and is only worth 1¢.OTOH if your coin is dated 1943, then it is steel and is worth maybe 25-50 cents depending on how worn it is.
It's worth about a quarter in average condition, regardless of mint mark.The steel pennies from World War 2 are not worth very much. A 1943 in good condition is worth about $0.15.
