Among standard issues, the champ is probably the 1909-S VDB, which had a mintage of only 484,000 and can sell for up to $78,000 in the highest known condition.

Among error coins, certainly the famous 1943 bronze cents and their lesser-known counterparts, 1944 steel cents. These have sold in the $350,000 - $400,000 range.

Don't expect to find any of these in change, though. No new discoveries have been made in decades.
