AnswerIt's probably what's called a filled-die error. A bit of grease or other crud gets into the tiny recesses of the lettering and prevents the metal from flowing into it when the coin is struck*. These are fairly common so I wouldn't expect that your coin is worth more than its normal value of about 25¢

(*) To clear up confusion, coins are said to be struck or minted. In the numismatic world the term "printed" is reserved for things made with paper and ink, like dollar bills.

A 1943 mistake could possibly be worth $$$50,000$$$ No seriously if it is truthfuly a 1943 than WOW you are RICH

As of 12/2008 a set of P-D-S steel cents in MS-60 condition retails for about $6.

However make sure the coins are not "reprocessed" by replating with zinc to make them appear to be new. If they're replated they're only worth a few cents each.

1943 is a common date for a brass threepence. Worth about 50 cents or so in worn condition and about $5 if it is a perfect example. However, the silver issues are a bit more scarce and a silver threepence is worth about $1 in scrap if it is completely worn down, but average grade examples are worth about $5 and if uncirculated it can be worth $20-30 or so.

A "Complete Set" of 1943 steel Lincoln cents would only be 3 coins. If uncirculated they may be worth as much as $5.00.
