It has plenty of value, thank you for your post. As I said I was offered money for it. On tick tock many of people are interested in buying it. Maybe you should put yours up for sale. I'd love to see a picture of yours

It has plenty of value, It has absolutely zero value in numismatic term. As a fantasy piece, a novelty piece it's worth is what someone is willing to pay you. As a curiosity I'm sure somebody might give you a dollar or two Edited by jasper62

And in regards to your comment Jasper, a coin with an error is worth its face value and only valued more based on what someone is willing to pay for it. So to say the coin has zero value, you are incorrect just like any rare coin it is valued at the price someone is willing to pay for it.

Sorry you didn't like my response. I was just stating the facts for you. There is really nothing to debate about my statement. here it is again if you missed it . Quote:

Never seen one. It is unusual that they copied the weight and diameter of a real cent. I have an idea that most cashiers nowadays would accept it.

Jasper I'm not bothered by your comment. It has less value than my coin. Everyone is entitled to an opinion. My coin is unique, you don't have one...but thanks for your comment.

Cujohn, I'm confident it would not be noticed by a cashier and accepted as a penny. They would probably keep it and replace it with a penny. I'm confident of that as well, as it is unique.

This isn't rare. It's a souvenir you can find in shops in San Francisco. Just type "Alcatraz lucky penny" into Google. If it is still encased in the Alcatraz plastic key chain then it is worth 10 dollars. Out of the key chain it may be worth about 3 dollars. It's just a novelty item. I literally bought one the other day for 10 dollars and found this website and post when I got curious about it.

jasper62 is absolutely correct on his statements. Your token has no value in the numismatic world. People collect all kinds of things like buttons, marbles, toys, comics, ect...those items and tokens are not accepted as coins. your coin is a token and there are collectors for them. It is very cool find but know what it is, a novelty, token and not a coin in any way.
