These have sold for $40,000 to $80,000. If you think you have one, first try to pick it up with a magnet. If you can, it is a steel cent with a copper coating. If it passes that test, compare it to a 1948 cent under a good magnifier. If the '3' looks just like the right side of the '8', it has been altered. If it passes that one, too, compare it to a common steel 1943 cent. The date should look exactly the same. If you still think it is genuine, contact one of the major third party grading and authentication services.
