The 1970 proof penny, as with all modern proof coins, was struck in the same manner as regular business coins ( those intended for circulation ) except the dies used for proof coins are highly polished to produce the mirror like surface on the coin. Also, the proof coin is struck multiple times to bring out the finest detail of the coins' design whereas business coins are struck only once.

There are 2 contenders for the rarest U.S. cent (=penny): Among circulated coins it's the 1793 "strawberry" design cent, which retails for about $300,000 even in worn condition. Among UNcirculated coins it's the 1793 "wreath" design cent, which retails for over half a million dollars. There are several unique British pennies, most notably the 1933 proof issue which is effectively priceless. No one can put a value on it because there is only one.
A British 1970 bronze Penny (QE II)(Proof FDC), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £10 GBP. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation. The last general circulation old Penny was issued in 1967. The 1970 (old) Penny was only minted as a Proof coin, not for general circulation. The New Penny was first issued in 1971.
Proof pennies are only made at San Francisco. It's not a proof. It is just a penny worth a penny.
About $2.00 for average proof coins
