The 1943 Lincoln penny is notable for being made of zinc-coated steel instead of copper due to wartime metal shortages. However, if you find a 1943 penny that is silver (copper), it is likely a rare error coin, as all 1943 pennies were intended to be made of steel. The value of a standard steel 1943 penny is typically only a few cents, but an authentic copper variant can be worth thousands of dollars, depending on its condition and provenance. Always consult a numismatic expert for an accurate appraisal.
