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.
