The 1974 copper Lincoln penny typically sells for its face value of one cent in circulated condition. However, if it is in excellent condition or uncirculated, it may fetch a few dollars. Additionally, if it's a rare variety, such as the 1974-S proof penny, it could be worth more. The value may vary based on demand and the specific condition of the coin.
Yes it is believe it or not it can sell for over 100 bucks but it is very hard to tell if it is printed backwards or not. i don't know where to turn it in but good luck.
There are not many 1943 copper pennies known. If it is genuine they sell for well over $100,000.
Lincoln cents from the 1940's & 1950's are very common coins. 1953 is a high mintage year. Circulated coins are still only 3 to 10 cents. Uncirculated coins do sell for higher prices.
You could try a reputable coin dealer in your area or eBay.
You have what is known as a Masonic Penny. The design you see on Lincoln's neck is the Mason's symbol. These generally sell for a couple dollars apiece.
No they are illegal to own and would be confiscated by the secret service if one were put for sale
If you mean is it legal to sell and old penny? yes.
It is probably real. All US cents minted since 1983 are zinc planchets with a thin coating of copper. Occasionally an unplated planchet slips through and these are worth a few dollars to an error collector. However, this error is easily faked by dipping a normal penny in a mild acid, so it really needs to be certified by an expert and the cost of certification exceeds the value of the error. The composition of pennies since 1983 is almost entirely zinc, with a thin outer coating of copper. Yours evidently did not get the outer copper layer. This is not as rare as you might think -- I get asked about them all the time. They generally sell for a dollar or two at most coin shows.
Yes, but these coins are extremely rare and sell for over $100,000. If you have one I would recommend getting it certified.
