The value of a 1934 U.S. copper penny, or Lincoln penny, typically ranges from a few cents to a couple of dollars, depending on its condition and mint mark. Uncirculated examples or those in excellent condition can fetch higher prices, while heavily worn coins are less valuable. Additionally, special varieties, such as the 1934-S or 1934-D, can have increased demand among collectors. Always consult a reputable coin dealer or price guide for the most accurate valuation.
