Your 1943 CENT is well worn and worth between 25-50 cents on a good day.
In the future, please crop and rotate your photos properly as per listing instructions.

Heck I give them away ( along with IHCs ) at work to families with younger kids to encourage our hobby.

Its a cool piece of American history, but like others have said, it is not worth much. I give them away in every ebay order that I ship.

I agree with above. You might as well hold on to it, since it's not worth much.

One of the most hoarded coins in history, they are common in all grades. Nice, mint state examples are worth like $5, this one about 10 cents at best.

Years ago, at first, I thought they were the greatest thing since sliced bread but quickly realized they were not all that. I have given so many away in AU and BU condition it's not funny. I have a poker player buddy who carries his with him at all time, was BU when I gave it to him, probably not so much now.
