Copper is much more expensive than most steel.
NO
Copper is good conductor of heat as compare to stainless steel. Hence it (Copper) can heat early as compare to stainless steel. Thats why, use of utensils having copper bottoms requires less time for cooking.
Steel is stronger than copper becaue of the atomic arrangement and inter molecular forces structure
It shouldn't as stainless is harder than copper.

A 1942 copper penny is worth between $0.15 and $3.00. If you have a 1943 copper penny it is worth a lot more. In 1943 because of the war and the need for copper pennies in that year were made from steel. Steel pennies from 1943 are worth around $0.30 and $2.50. If you have a real 1943 copper penny take it to a coin shop or dealer and have them check it out to see if it is real.
Steel will corrode as the iron in it is more reactive than copper.
That is NOT correct. Copper conducts heat better than steel.
It is because steel has a higher elasticity than copper i.e the opposing force of steel is more than that of copper. Elasticity of steel is more than copper because it has a higher value of Young's Modulus.
5-10 cents.
Yes in that you can actually sell them, but you can get an entire roll of 50 for $7.00 on eBay.
-In 1943, pennies were made out of steel instead of copper. A 1943 pure copper penny is a rare mint error, and is worth lots.
Copper pans are a lot more durable than ceramic pans. However, they are not as durable as steel pans.
The most valuable ones are the 1943 copper penny, and the even more rare 1944 steel penny.
They are probably bits of rust rather than copper chunks, so the coin is probably worth a few cents at most.
There isn't a "steel copper" penny. US cents were made of steel - but no copper - during 1943 to conserve copper for use in ammunition. Up till 1982 other dates of cents were made of a bronze alloy that was 95% copper, but no steel. A few 1943 cents were struck in bronze by accident but these are very rare and none have been found in many years.
The 1943 penny was not made with copper, like all other years. Copper was funneled to the War Department so the 1943 penny was made from steel and other compounds.
