Australia has never produced a silver Penny. If your Penny is silver, it would be because somebody has plated it. Modified coins have no collector value.
An Australian 1917 bronze Halfpenny (George V), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to $575 AUD. If it has been circulated but still in good condition, it might fetch anything from $1 to $80 AUD.
There were 6.24 million minted.
A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.
A 1911 Australian penny in uncirculated condition could be worth $400 dollars, plus. A 1917 Australian halfpenny in a similar condition [uncirculated] could fetch
$300 plus. These estimates are taken from a current coin catalogue, and are based on the coins being in an uncirculated grade.
An average condition coin may fetch only a few dollars.
What would the worth of a 1901 penny be?
It's only a penny spend it.
It is worth a penny.
As far as general circulation coins are concerned, easily the most valuable Australian Penny is the 1930 Penny and the most valuable Halfpenny would be the 1923 Halfpenny.
How much would an 1897 indain head penny be worth today in 2012
A 1883 Indian Head penny would be worth $3 if worn, $16 if none circulated.
Depends on WHICH penny, and condition. In the US, an average circulated Indian Head Penny sells for about a dollar.
A 1999 Denver Mint penny is not worth appreciably more than other pennies. In most collections, this penny would only be worth one cent.
My guess would be that it was plated with gold (or a gold-colored metal) after minting, and that it is thus worth about a penny.
you wouldn't think it would be worth more than a penny. I have one and it is from the Bahama's, and the date is 2004.
It's worth 2 cents for the copper.
This would depend on what country the coin is from.
