Please check your coin again and post a new question with the corrected date, denomination, and/or issuing country.
The 1943 US pennies were steel, not platinum. Their worth depends on condition.
Sorry no US gold half penny of any date never made any
Assuming it is a British half penny, it is worth about 25-50 cents in circulated condition and about $5 if uncirculated.
it was worth 1cent but now its worth bout a half mil.
1/2 a cent.
There are not many 1943 copper pennies known. If it is genuine they sell for well over $100,000.
1943 cents were made of zinc-coated steel. If you melt it, you'd get less than a penny's worth of metal, even if you could sell such a small quantity.
There are a few ways to answer this question. If you are referring to the British penny, one US cent (often called the penny in the US) is about .75 of a penny from the UK but fluctuates depending on exchange rates. If you are referring to the US half cent, those haven't been minted since the first half of the 1800s.
Sorry it's actually zinc plated steel. They are worth 3 cents to $3
A 1943 penny made of copper that's worth $20-40k circulated.
If this half of a question is supposed to be about the coin's value, it's worth about 3 cents.
A date is needed, please post new question.
