Coins that have the real name "penny" (as opposed to the US/Canadian slang term for a cent) have been issued by many countries in the British Commonwealth / Empire.
If will almost certainly have a picture of the British monarch on it. If no country name is shown, it's from the UK. In that case, if it's about the size of a US nickel it's a modern penny worth face value only. If it's about the size of a US half dollar it's a so-called "old penny" whose value depends on its date.
Most other countries in the Commonwealth converted to dollars and cents back in the 1960s or 1970s so if your coin has a country name on it (e.g. Australia or New Zealand) it's from a date before conversion. Again, its value would depend on date and condition as well as the issuing country.
Please post a new, separate question with the coin's country of origin. If it says ONE CENT, it's a US Large Cent. If it says ONE PENNY, it's a British penny.
The coin that is not a penny is a quarter. The other one IS a penny.

That would be a coin of the Irish pound, which has since been replaced by the euro.
There is no such coin. The US mint does not a coin out of only one metal.
The rarest British Penny would be the 1954 Penny. There is one known to exist, maybe two, but there could be some doubt about the second.
