NOTHING. That war was pointless. It cause World War II. It was pretty much every country proving their strength...
one penny mate
The penny is made of zinc as it was during world war 2 and metals like copper, brass, and steel were in high demand for the war effort, so pennies were made with zinc. Not sure of it's worth, but they are getting very hard to find
A "silver penny" is a steel penny. They were minted in 1943, during World War II, because of the copper shortage. To a collector, it may be worth something, yes, but certainly no amount you could retire on.
It's made of zinc-plated steel, not aluminum. In average condition a so-called "war penny" is worth 10 cents to a half-dollar
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.
because the penny that year wasn't made out of copper cause it was used for communication equipments during world war 2
The 1943-S steel Lincoln cent is common. Average value is 10 to 25 cents.
For which pistol??
about 30 $

10 punds worth
The 1943 silver colored penny is a wartime issue made of steel, and coated with zinc. During World War II, copper was so badly needed for the war effort (to make shell casings) that the U.S. penny was made out of steel that year, which is why most 1943 pennies are silver colored. They are worth about 12 to 15 cents each in ciruclated condition, and as much as 50 cents or more if Uncirculated.
