Please check your coin again. Wheat cents were made from 1909 to 1958. A half-dollar sized cent dated 1851 is a Large Cent or Liberty cent.
The US 1851 Braided Hair Large cent is the highest mintage (9,889,707) of all US large cents and has values of $18.00-$26.00 for a coin in average good condition
Indian head cents were made from 1859 to 1909. Please check again and post a new question.
What would the worth of a 1901 penny be?

$25 to $8,000 depending upon the condition of the coin.
Back in 1898, one penny would buy many things. One penny would buy a daily newspaper, two eggs, three or four candy sticks, a half-loaf of bread, or and entire loaf of day old bread in 1898.
A coin dealer would have to buy it (or you could sell it via eBay or craigslist) but at most that penny is worth 3 cents. It is a really common penny and most likely you would find no one wanting to buy it for over a cent.
You pay a penny.....
One Penny GBP in 1700 had the purchasing power of about £0.50 GBP today.

A penny could buy you a great many things in the year 1928. A penny could buy a child a piece of candy for example.
According to "wikipedia" the first Wheat backed pennies were not struck until 1909.
