The 1944 steel penny is valued highly because it was produced using leftover steel from World War II, as the U.S. Mint switched back to copper for the penny in that year. In contrast, the 1943 steel penny, made from zinc-coated steel to conserve copper during the war, is much more common, making it less valuable. The rarity and historical significance of the 1944 steel penny contribute to its higher market price, while the 1943 version is abundant and widely circulated.

You can tell if a 1944 penny is made of steel by using a magnet. Place a magnet near the penny - if it sticks, then the penny is made of steel. Steel pennies were issued in 1943 due to a shortage of copper, so any 1944 penny made of steel would be an error.
1943 cents were made of steel, a magnetic metal, to conserve copper for the war effort. Other pennies are made of bronze or copper-plated zinc depending on their dates. Neither bronze nor zinc are susceptible to a magnet.
Test it with a magnet. 1943 steel cents are magnetic. 1944 copper cents are not.
