Why did they make steel coins in 1943 instead of copper coins?
Actually the cent was only US coin to be made of steel in 1943.Copper was needed to make many different kinds of ammunition so a lot of industries needed to divert copper for the war effort, including the US Mint. At the time the cent was made of bronze, an alloy containing 95% copper along with a bit of tin and zinc, and its coinage consumed tons of copper every year. The Mint began experiments in 1942 to find a temporary replacement for bronze. They finally settled on the use of scrap steel plated with a thin layer of zinc to limit corrosion.Unfortunately the new coins had a number of problems. When new, the zinc coating gave them a silvery color that caused confusion with dimes. After the coins had been in circulation for a while the zinc oxidized to a dull, dirty-looking gray. Worse, as the zinc wore off the underlying steel would begin to rust.The different colors led to numerous myths about the coins. Some people erroneously believed they were made of silver. The gray color caused others to conclude the coins were made of lead, and some people refused to use them out of fear of lead poisoning.By 1944 there was enough additional copper available that the Mint was able to resume the standard bronze composition. Much of that copper came from the jackets of used bullets and shells, leading 1944 and 1945 cents to be called shell-case cents.A lot of steel cents were eventually removed from circulation by collectors or by scrap dealers. Even so, the huge numbers minted (over a billion coins) mean an average-quality "steelie" sells for less than a dollar.

Is a copper penny of 1943 a higher value than a penny of 2007 or a lower value?
If it is copper, than it is worth thousands of dollars: unless it is a fraud which you can find out by placing it on a magnet. It will stick if it is fake. If your penny is silver colored, if uncirculated, it is worth about a dollar. if circulated, about 25 cents.
Does a 1963 steel penny have any value?
The only steel cents are dated 1943. I suspect you have a 1963 Copper penny which has been dipped in Mercury long ago. I can't recall enough about Chemistry to explain the chemical process(s) involved, but when a Copper penny is dipped in Mercury, the Mercury "plates" on the penny creating a bright silvery finish. I did this in an experiment back in the early 50s, and when the penny was observed several months later, the finish had turned very dark, almost black, and "looked like" a real steel penny of 1943. I suggest that you have your penny examined by a coin dealer, and/or a metallurgist [possibly including a test of the base metal]. Unfortunately, I think you will find that it is truly a 1963 Copper penny with some kind of surface coating which mimicks the finish of an aged 1943 steel penny.j3h.
Who has a picture of a 1943 copper penny?
It looks like any other penny...with the exception of a small handful, all 1943 pennies were steel. If you think you have one, go to www.money.org and find a American Numismatic Association coin dealer in your area to verify it. If it is one, it can be worth more than $100,000. Beware of counterfeits.
How do you find a 1943 copper penny?
You don't. Only about 2 dozen were made by mistake, and everything has been accounted for long ago. None have been found in circulation or private collections in decades.
Can you find a 1943 penny in your change?
The correct term for a US coin is cent, not penny. Almost all cents struck in 1943 were zinc coated steel since copper was needed for the war effort. It is extremely unlikely that you would find a 1943 one cent coin in your change- not only is 67 years a very long time for any coin to remain in circulation, but the different color would cause most people to set it aside rather than spend it. If you mean one of the roughly two dozen known copper 1943 cents, then no, there is no chance of you ever finding one.
Are there any 1943 copper pennies still out there?

How do you find out if a worn copper wheat penny is a 1943 u can barely read the date...?
Being that a genuine copper 1943 cent is so rare, all known specimens have long since been removed from circulation and sold to collectors. The rest are fakes. If you want to know the date and value, bring it to a coin dealer, or perhaps a jeweler, for an inspection and appraisal.
How does one find out if a penny is made of copper or zinc?
You can tell if a penny is made out of zinc or copper by the date on the penny. If the date is before 1982 then the penny is 95% copper. Pennies dated 1983 or later are 97.5% zinc with a thin copper coating.
Can you see a picture of a 1943 New Zealand penny?
It looks just like the rest of the Lincoln cents struck on bronze planchets.
Do anyone know how much a siv ler 1943 penny is worth?
The penny is made of zinc as it was during world war 2 and metals like copper, brass, and steel were in high demand for the war effort, so pennies were made with zinc. Not sure of it's worth, but they are getting very hard to find
Prove a new penny is not made of pure copper It has a mass of 2.49 and a volume of 0.349cm3?
at first, you have to find the density of the penny. [density = mass/ volume ] so 2.49/ 0.349 = 7.1347. rounded to 7.1 but the density of the copper is 8.92 g/ cm3 as the densities are not close, the penny is not pure copper. hope this help :)
