Just wanted to know which penny has more value, the 2006 mintmark non-magnetic, or the 2006 mintmark magnetic?

Which one should I keep?

As far as I know they are both of the same value, unless your saving them for the cooper content, then go with the non-magnetic. The one that is the prize is the 2006 magnetic with no mint mark.

Maybe this will help:
2006-copper plated zinc(non-magnetic)
2006L(mint logo)copper plated zinc(non-magnetic)
2006L(mint logo)multiplated steel(magnetic)
2006P-multiplated steel(magnetic)(very low mintage)(hard to find)-I can't find this one in ciculation.But I do have one in a mint set I bought
And of course 2006(plain)-magnetic.The one everyone is after!

All of the above have very little copper content.Approx.90-95%steel or zinc.

Oh! I almost forgot! If you're looking for copper Canadian pennies(98%copper)1996 was the last year minted. '97 to date is zinc/steel. (If not,just ignore this.) By the way,a GREAT BIG W E L C O M E to this forum from all of us I"m sure!

I just checked my PL sets, the 2006 P cent is magnetic and the 2006 M is also magnetic. I think Colonial Acres has the non-magnetic variety.
