What would the worth of a 1901 penny be?
Your coin has been plated. The U.S. never struck a silver cent. At that time it would have been worth about 12 cents, and the Mint wouldn't give away 11 cents on each penny.
How much would an 1897 indain head penny be worth today in 2012
It is worth a penny.
It's only a penny spend it.
Someone used a metal punch to alter it. It's damage rather than a Mint error, so your coin unfortunately has no numismatic worth above its face value.
A Silver Penny struck in 1600 would bear the image of Queen Elizabeth I on the front, with the legend "E D G ROSA SINE SPINA" on the reverse, there would be a shield with lions passent and fleurs de lis with a legend saying which city the coin was struck in.
If by a "silver penny" you mean one of the 1943 steel cents, then in mint condition it's worth a dollar or two. If you mean some other date, then it's silver plated and has no collector value. And your 1967 penny has been altered -- no added value.
A 1883 Indian Head penny would be worth $3 if worn, $16 if none circulated.
It's worth 2 cents for the copper.
My guess would be that it was plated with gold (or a gold-colored metal) after minting, and that it is thus worth about a penny.
you wouldn't think it would be worth more than a penny. I have one and it is from the Bahama's, and the date is 2004.
