They're not.
Two pennIes
In circulated condition both are worth 1 cent . Uncirculated 1983 cents are worth a bit more than 1988 ones but in either case they're common coins that sell for less than 50 cents except in the topmost grades.My guess is that you mis-heard one of the many variations on a brain teaser, "Why are 1988 cents worth more than 1983 cents" (or some other dates). The reason is that when spoken instead of written, the wording can mean "1,983 cents ..." so the joke's answer is "because 1,983 cents are worth $19.83 but 1,988 cents are worth $19.88"Bada-bada-BING!
Pennies are good to keep their just very heavy when you have a pocket full of them. Pennies are worth more then the coin value they are worth 1.17 cents. I am also ******* a hot woman right now:)
1960 pennies are worth more. Wrong!.... 2008 are worth more... its about quantity not YEAR Clever. But I would point out that the 1990 pennies would probably be worth the most due to the fact that they contain more copper =)
Based on melt value alone, any Lincoln cents minted before 1982 are worth about 2 cents each for their copper content.
They are worth more because less were minted.

Usually S mintmark wheat pennies are worth more.
five pennies, because they usually think that since five is more than one, the pennies are worth more
One roll of pennies has a face value of a 50 cents. However, if there is a penny in the roll that is worth more than 1 cent the roll will be worth more.
Assuming that pennies means cents (why?) then yes.
Because there are no 1967 pennies. Decimal currency started in 1966.Actually, 1966 pennies should be worth more than 1967 pennies as a 1967 penny would be a fake.CorrectionThis question was posted in US Coins so it refers to US 1-cent pieces by their slang name. It's actually a rather lame joke. The answer is (ba DING!) "1,967 pennies are worth $19.67 which is one cent more than $19.66"
