Who or what lead you to believe that they're actually worth something? A 1969-S penny is worth about 2 cents for its copper content, and that's all.
Why are certain pennys worth so much 1955dd 1969s?
The dates in this question are known to have "Doubled Die" errors. This means there is doubling in the design elements. Doubled dies can appear as an outline of the design or in extreme cases, having legends and dates appear twice in an overlapping fashion. The coins are rare and have much higher values.

Can a Volkswagen Beetle float on water?
If there are no holes in the floor pan and all the seals are good, VW Bugs will float. Right now, after what--30 or 40 years collecting pan holes and dry-rotted seals?--you should not try it. Oh yes...on the 1970 and later Bugs there are those little grilles behind the back windows. You've seen 'em, right? Volkswagen "officially" sez they're in there for ventilation. The real reason they're in there is because with the 1969s and earlier, that didn't have those vents, the car was sealed so tightly you couldn't slam the doors shut because they wouldn't latch if you tried it.
Are the great lakes being polluted?
The pollution problems in the Great Lakes have traditionally been linked to discharges of phosphates, mercury, chlorinated organics, organic materials like phenols and dissolved solids. The phosphates were removed by the reformulation of detergents, the mercury by th elimination of this compound at chloralkali plants, the chlorinated organics by product reformation and tighter controls at manufacturing plants, organic materials by improved treatment and the dissolved solids by improved treatment and use controls. Oil spills although an ongoing issue are generally a surface phenomenon which care controllable. Some organic problems due to invasive species such as sea lampreys and zebra mussels are being tackled by biocides. In genral the water quality is greatly improved since the mid-1969s.
What is an H and H Zehner Custom mauser?
H&H Zehner was a a postwar Frankfort gunsmith firm, engraver, and custom rifle builder apparently beginning in the early stages of the occupation and continuing at least as a gun-dealer/shop in Frankfurt until at least the fairly recent past. Here are some few facts and my opinion based on what I have seen. It would be wonderful is someone familiar with the shop as it existed in Frankfurt could correct any errors of mine and add details. As a name, "Zehner" may be the family name of a guild maker or a reference to to a "10" score for a target hit. Evidently, H&H Zehner was also associated with a target range in the Frankfurt area. I think because a lot of work was done to order for American GI's, quite a few examples appear in the American market. Immediately post-war, it appears that bolt action rifles were built on GI-provided "liberated" Mauser military actions and M1903 Springfields bought cheaply as surplus by officers. I have seen later bolt-action rifles that are built on FN or Sako commercial Mauser actions. All in all I have seen about a dozen Zehner rifles and own one. A "top quality" rifle from Zehner is heavily and skillfully engraved with an oak-leaf pattern on the receiver, a stereotypical elk-like stag on the floor plate, and with the owner's initials ornately rendered over the trigger and is marked in some variation of "H&H Zehner Gunsmiths Frankfort" as part of the floorplate engraving. I have seen plainer, less ornate examples that seem to date from the later 1959s or 1969s (when skilled hand-work was starting to get expensive). I have seen close to identical engraving and stock carving patterns on several different Zehner rifles. Thus, I suspect in most cases a Zehner customer selected "embellishments" from a choice of several "standardized" patterns rather than getting truly bespoke work. Stocks vary substantially but usually include carved animal scenes in keeping with engraving stereotypes and filligree in addition to checkering. Many of the pre-1950 examples include a top quality pre-war commercial Hensolt or other Wetzlar scope. I suspect these were "used" scopes kept by their German owners when they were forced to turn in their private fire arms for destruction by allies early in the occupation. I do not know if early Zehner rifles can properly be lumped in to the category of "Cigarette Rifles." If this is the case, then Zehner was certainly one of the more skilled. Some Zehner examples are over-the-top cookoo clock like in ornateness and awkward in the hand. Maybe these were "apprentice work." Others are are beautifully balanced, and styled in the lean tradition of a high-grade English magazine rifle or a pre-war custom Springfield from Griffin and Howe. This has caused me to wonder if the "H&H" is perhaps an intentional allusion to "Holland and Holland." On these examples, the Zehner-typical engaving and stock carving seems elegant and tasteful rather than a bit garish. I suspect this (clunky vs. graceful examples) has to do a lot with the sophistication of the person that originally ordered the rifle. Those who knew enough to appreciate a Griffin and Howe or Rigby-like rifle and clearly describe its attributes, got that. My example is on a wonderfully smithed and polished M1903 Springfield action, has 100% hand engraving coverage, and engine turned bolt, probably dates to between 1945 and 1948 and includes a scope that dates to the late 1930's with claw mounts engraved as the receiver. A game scene is carved in shallow relief on the stock which from 10 feet you would swear was Griffin and Howe. The rifle is light (just under 7 lbs without scope) and balances superbly with weight between the hands. The action is velvet smooth and the trigger is as good as it gets. The rifle is superbly accurate.
