Coinstar Pillar of the Community United States 1510 Posts	Posted 08/23/2011 6:20 pm you mean a 1943? cause I found this info; 1944 steel penny-- Only a couple of these have been authenticated, and are worth over $100,000. However there are many counterfeits out there -- copper pennies that have been zinc plated. Do the magnet test -- a real 1944 steel cent will stick to a magnet. If it passes this test, and has been examined for an altered date (using a strong magnifier), then you would need to get it certified (preferably by PCGS or NGC).

ikandiggit Pillar of the Community Canada 1166 Posts	Posted 08/24/2011 09:24 am It appears you're looking to pick up the rarest cents for pennies (pun intended). (See your other post https://goccf.com/t/96438). These coins have been discussed by collectors for decades and if you think someone will unwittingly send you one as a filler, you are sadly mistaken. Nice try, though. Report this Post to the Staff
