The value of this coin depends heavily on the condition. I would recommend taking it to more than 1 local dealer. If it has heavy wear then it is worth about $175. If it has a majority of the detail remaining then it goes up to about $350. If it only has traces of wear on the highest points of the coin then it goes up to $700. These by the way are wholesale values. But you can see you definitely need the opinion of an expert on this piece. Also, you should look for a mint mark on the reverse of the coin beneath the eagle. If there is one, then these values are not for that coin.

George Bent was born in 1843.
The Trail, also known as the "Great Migration" began in 1843. 1000 pioneers assembled with 120 wagons and 5000 head of livestock left Independence Missouri for a greater life out west. This was the largest peacetime migration in the history of the world.
Charles Rice Ames House was created in 1843.

It is not possible to give an estimated value based only on the year the coin was minted. The denomination is essential.
Miss Liberty
There were no Indian Head pennies made in 1843.
July 3rd, 1843
The first Indian Head cent was made in 1859 and is much smaller (19mm) than the 1843 (27.5mm) Liberty Head cent. 1843 is not a rare or even scarce date for large cents but this year has 3 types were the 'Bust' of miss Liberty is slightly different and also has small and large letters on the reverse of the coin. The values between the 3 types is $2.00 to $30.00 depending on the actual grade of the coin. In general retail values for a coin in average circulated condition (grades of G-4 to VF-20) is $18.00 to $80.00.
Please check your coin again. All 1843 US silver dollars were minted in Philadelphia so they don't carry a mint mark, and more importantly the Carson City Mint didn't open until 1870. If your coin does have that date and mint mark it's either a genuine silver dollar that was altered, or it's a counterfeit. A knowledgeable dealer or appraiser would need to look at it in person to decide which.
I assume you have a U.S. large cent with that date. It should be about the size of a half-dollar. (If not, please post a new question with the country of origin - thx) There were several varieties of large cents struck that year, but most retail in the $25 to $30 range if well-worn, up to maybe $175 if almost uncirculated.
I can't find an 1845 image, but the same design was used throughout the 1840s. The link below shows an 1843.
In 1843, the value of a schilling would have depended on the country it was from, as many countries used schillings as their currency. For example, in Austria, one schilling was equal to 100 kreuzer. In Britain, one British shilling was equal to 12 pence.
Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 07/2010: Very worn condition - $234 Moderately worn - $312 Slightly worn - $372 Almost no wear - $1,008 Uncirculated - $2,220 to $85,630 depending on quality
2¢ pieces were only issued from 1864 to 1873. Please check again and post a new question. If the date really is 1843 you may have a privately-minted piece, a fantasy "coin", or a counterfeit.
All U.S. Large cents should to be seen for an accurate evaluation. For the 1843 Braided Hair type, 3 different varieties exist, 2 dealing with large and small letters on the reverse and 1 with slight differences in the bust of Miss Liberty on the obverse. The values are a little different for each one. Most examples show heavy wear and depending on which coin it is, values are $18.00-$60.00.
