The aluminum penny could be said to be "priceless" I suppose. Here's a fun article on the most expensive penny in universe: http://gizmodo.com/5941114/this-is-...the-universe Edited by Broseph 10/20/2013 11:02 am Report this Post to the Staff
oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 10/20/2013 9:32 pm I would throw the 1959-D Wheatback Cent into the ring, while not the most expensive (originally sold for $48,300 and resold for $31,050), it pretty much stands alone...only one known. http://www.pcgs.com/News/The-Myster...Lincoln-Cent I am almost for sure certain that any 1974 Aluminum Lincoln Cent is illegal to own.

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 10/21/2013 10:00 am So many of the Mint error types out there. 1922 plain, 1959 Wheat back, 1943 Copper, 1944 Steel, 55 and 72 Doubled Dies, 83 reverse Doubled Die, 74 Aluminum Cent and a pile of miscellaneous others. However, all are really errors. The question was actually the most valuable Lincoln Cent. IF only considering REAL, not error coins, I would guess it's between the 09S VDB and the 14D.

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 10/26/2013 7:45 pm There is a site called coppercoins.com This is web site by someone named Charles D. Daughtrey who has at least two books out on just Lincoln Cents. The titles are Looking Through Lincoln Cents. Lots of info, photos and explanations about all the different errors for each year.
