[@raymondrussell500]

I have seen and held a 1943 copper Penney. But it wasn’t mine to keep. It belonged to a friend in High School and his family. It was brought in to have our chemistry teacher verify that it was really made from copper. At that time it was believed that only 6 such coins existed. The sale of it put all of the kids in that family through College. The story was that the youngest son got it as part of a payment for the news papers he delivered. Someone thought its value was only one cent!

[@cab102361]

I am not sure where I got my love of coins but I love collecting them. My husband and I throw all our change in a basket. When the basket is full I go through it and get all the coins out I want to keep, the rest I roll and save for something we want. I have purchased an e-reader, a puppy, we’ve used it towards trips etc. I’ve done this most of my life with no prompting from anyone. I simply love collecting coins. My sister works for Dollar General and keeps her eyes peeled for coins, 2 dollar bills etc.

[@smb123211]

As a longtime professional coin collector let me make a few corrections. (1) No coin should EVER be cleaned with more than soapy water. (2) The two factors that determine cost are rarity and condition. Most collectors think this sale is looney (one had sold the year before for $85,000 - 1/20th the cost). But this one was unique - it had been certified by professionals (PCGS), it was graded MS63 and classified as "Bright Red", an incredible rarity. Nothing in your pocket will be a high grade due to the scuff marks, wear and tear and lack of luster. Example: The famous 1909-S VDB Lincoln cent can go for $5,000 (brown), $7200 (Brown with some red) or $13,500 (bright red).

[@johnsmythe6134]

Coin dealer/shop owner and wheat cent collector here...Been doing it for 60+ years. There were VERY very few 1943 copper planchets which got to the penny dies in 1943. Most if not all have been accounted for. Over the decades I have only seen and handled one such cent, and that was in 1958. It sold at auction in 1964 for $122,000 USD due to it's AU (almost uncirculated) condition. Back then, almost all of these rare genuine cents had already been accounted for, but the best guess was that there were (in 1964) if any, one or two circulating on the planet. An old Navy buddy came into my shop in the '70's and CLAIMED to have 3 of them. Well, I called B.S. on him, BUT...they passed my magnet test and I started thinking something is really fishy here, 3 of the rarest cents on Earth and my old buddy has 3 of them, a P, a D, and an S. He wanted to sell them to me, as all the matchbook covers back then had the 'Million-Dollar-Penny' advertisement "Do you have one of THESE 1943 pennies?" With his permission, under 40X magnification we scraped the obverse and reverse sides which revealed they had been copper-plated, and were in fact, ordinary steel cents with a thin zinc coating value, 3c to 5c each. The real and honest chances of finding a genuine 1943 (P, D, or S mint) as of 2019 is approximately ONE in 6 quadrillion. Any real numismatist would bet any lifetime collection of gold that you are NOT going to find one of these cents anywhere today. Also, from the late 1940's, a lot of State Fair Operators and novelty shops were selling and handing these out as souvenirs to tourists as a joke gift item. It is sad that some ignorant/innocently naive people believed this nonsense, thinking they had suddenly become wealthy. There was a New York News story of a widow's suicide after learning that her "valuable" 1943-D COPPER WHEAT CENT she had held onto for decades was a plated fake. Sad but true. So, Don't waste your time. Collect some coins, have some fun, and don't fall for a counterfeit cent. GL and HH to all - John J. Smythe, Numismatist

The chance that these coins have not been snatched up already is so ridiculously miniscule that it is not worth discussing. It was so even when I collected coins as a kid in the 1970's, only 30 years after the fact.

Fascinating, thank you. My father loved old coins, and I now pay close attention to my 'pocket change'..occasionally turning up some fun things!! No gazillion dollar mint errors yet, but I love sifting through the penny jars - and thinking about how my late Dad liked to do this, as well!!

Coinage is being debased. The dollar has lost so much value, it's hard to make metal coins that aren't worth much more than face value.

[@scottfirman]

JD's Variety Channel I know what you mean,once you find an old coin,you naturally want to get into the history and then you naturally want to start buying the collector coins.I am up to my ears in different coins now. I have to admit though,my dad used to have an old steel bank in the shape of a bear that had old coins,he held my fascination with those coins. When I got into metal detecting back in the 1980's, technology was just starting to surpass the older detectors,allowing for better detecting,better discrimination and better depth.

[@olataras6290]

I really enjoyed the video. Would like to see more like that. Thank you!

[@scottfirman]

J D Its best to take it to an actual coin shop if you have any questions reguarding coins. The guys there are always dealing with coins so they know their stuff. I got to know the guys at my local coin shop and that has saved me money in the long run. I save all my receipts as well as leave the price I paid on the pocket of the coin I purchase. I showed my friends at the coin shop some 90's pennys that looked smaller and had no copper ,turned out they were paunclets from another countrys coins stamped with the us penny die. They are worth money,simply because the US mint isnt supposed to make mistakes. When they do,they usually catch them. Thats why those coins are so collectable.

First, determine if it's worth anything. If it's a U.S. coin, take it to a Barnes & Noble and find "A Guide Book of UNITED STATES COINS 2019" It's red and gold and known as "The Official Red Book". Should be in the hobby and/or collectable department. Find your coin and go from there. Jut remember "Good" condition means you can barely make out what coin it is. Good luck.

The 1943-D *copper* cent is worth that much. As near as anyone knows only one was made and it's already accounted for. There were more made at Philadelphia and San Francisco. They're still valuable but in the tens of thousands rather than millions. 1943 *steel* cents are common.

I mentioned that one of the 1943 copper pennies sold for 1.7 million. The most valuable after I believe is the 1909-S VDB that you mentioned, and also the 1955 doubled die.
