JFK has appeared counter-stamped on many Lincoln cents of different dates for a very long time, this is not done by the US Mint. The coins are usually glued to a card with "Strange Facts" between both presidents, they have no numismatic collectible value.
There seems to be some confusion here. Kennedy is on the half dollar, while Lincoln is on the penny. A 1974 Kennedy half is worth 50 cents. A '74 Lincoln cent is worth 2 cents for its copper content.
It's a novelty coin made by a private company that has no collectible value, but it's still one cent.
If it is a penny, then it has to be.

Proof pennies are only made at San Francisco. It's not a proof. It is just a penny worth a penny.

It's almost certainly either a privately-issued piece or a genuine penny that was altered. Either way it has no collector value.
Those Lincoln-Kennedy cents were modified by a private company, NOT the U.S. Mint. To find the value, check how much they're selling for on eBay. It's probably not much.
Those coins are novelties, modified by a 3rd party outside the US mint. It's only worth as much as someone is willing to spend.

It's almost certainly an ordinary penny that was plated with a silver-colored metal. In that case it's considered to be damaged coin worth 1 cent.
No value can be given because no 1974 or 1974-D aluminium Lincoln cents have ever been sold. Only one was donated to the Smithsonian Institution for the National Numismatic Collection.
Yes, there are pennies worth $2000. A 1974 penny made from aluminum has been estimated between $250,000 and $1,000,000. A 1969 S Double Die Lincoln penny was sold in 2002 for $59,500.

I have a 1980 penny with Martin Luther King Jr.s head stamped on it next to Lincoln's head and I have a co-worker who collects coins who says it is not worth anymore than a penny because it was not stamped at the mint. It is stamped not rsised as part of the coin.
A 1974 US Lincoln cent weighs 3.1 grams.
