What you have is a coin that's been plated. It's considered to be an altered or damaged coin, and is only worth 1 cent.
These coins are still potentially in circulation so, unless they are part of a Proof or uncirculated mint set or are individual Proof or uncirculated coins and in absolute mint condition, they are worth 1 Penny.
