It is a well known fact that pennies minted from 1982 and back are made of 95% copper. These copper�pennies are not rare at all. When I coin roll hunt, I find LOTS of copper�pennies. Today we will dive into whether�to keep them or not. On first thought, you might think not because�copper is not worth much. But I am here to tell you otherwise. If we take a look at the web, it takes 10-11 copper�pennies to have a melt weight�of 1 OZ of copper. If you look at the price of copper per oz today, it is $0.27 per oz. If we take a look at coinflation (A PCGS app) the copper melt value for ONE COPPER PENNY is $0.03 So if I were to go to the bank and get ONE roll of�pennies and there are, lets say 10 copper�pennies in there. So 1/5 of the roll is copper. Then I have $0.30 And it cost me $0.10 So, as far as I can tell YOU should keep copper�pennies. BUT ITS NOT THAT SIMPLE! The�pennies do not have this copper value unless they are melted and refined. BUT YOU CANT JUST MELT A BUNCH OF PENNIES! The government won't�let you! Why, you might ask. Well, then there would be almost no�pennies in circulation. So why keep them? Well because, you WILL be able to melt them! Yep! But only when the U.S. Mint stops making�pennies. You might think, when is that? Well it is estimated to be in 2026. But some people don't�want to wait that long! So they think of ways to melt them NOW! Some think, hey why not just fly them out of the U.S. and melt the there? Well because, the U.S. will only let you bring so many�pennies out of the country. You might be asking how many? Well, the answer�is not enghouth to make the trip worth it. So, your best option is to keep those copper�pennies until�they get rid of the penny, and sell them then. It will be a nice way to make so money! It might seem not worth it now, but in 2026 you will smile upon the day you started to save copper�pennies! Thank you for reading, and good luck coin roll hunting! I am a kid, so the only coin denomination I can afford is�pennies! I have a BIG tub full of copper�pennies! Like 1,000's! So I will be SO glad when its 2026. Thanks for reading.

Which 1943 wheat penny is worth the most?

A 1943 Lincoln penny that soared in value because it was made from the "wrong" material reportedly has sold for $1 million. The penny was erroneously made of bronze instead of zinc-coated steel at the San Francisco Mint, according to UPI news agency. Texas Rangers co-chairman Bob R. Simpson bought the coin from Legend Numismatics, a rare coin dealer in Lincroft, N.J. Professional Coin Grading Service, an organization that evaluates and grades rare coins, certified the penny in question, grading it a 62 on a scale of 1 to 70. "The Simpson collection now contains the finest known bronze cent from each mint, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Denver, including the unique 1943-D bronze cent that PCGS certified after Legend acquired and sold to him for a record $1.7 million in 2010," Willis said. The U.S. Mint switched from bronze planchets to zinc-coated steel for cents in 1943 because copper was needed during World War II. "By error, some bronze planchets made it into the hoppers at all three Mints, were struck and released into circulation. These have become the most famous and valuable of all off-metal errors," PCGS said in a release.

The Lincoln penny is pricey, but a rare dime has it beat.

In August, a dime from 1873 fetched $1.84 million at auction.

An anonymous bidder scored the rare coin for $1.6 million in an auction at the American Numismatic Association convention at the Philadelphia Convention Center. The $1.84 million price tag included a 15 percent buyer's fee.
