Hey guys, found three really cool looking Pennies from the collection I inherited. I know they not worth anything but just wanted to share because the colours are pretty nice.

At least from these pics, I'm not sure that this coin has been reprocessed. There are a couple of unfortunate scratches on the obv though.

I'll say EF details (scratched), not reprocessed, worth very little.

Keep in mind you're more likely to be hit by lightning 2 days in a row than finding a copper 43 in the wild.

Yes, looks like a 'common', '43 S steel Wheat cent. Don't believe it's been plated. Always cool.
