Had a few hundred in cash in my wallet last weekend, so my daughter and I went to the bank to get some rolls to hunt.

She found this:

1943-Steel-Penny

1943-Steel-Penny

Looks to be in really nice shape, except for the nasty hole someone drilled in it

Regardless, she's excited :)

Just thought I'd share....

Nice find! Still a keeper but, a damaged coin. Great for "Show and Tell" at a young age to bring in to school. Also bring in other cents and show this coin is the only magnetic coin in U.S. history by using a magnet. Then explain the history 1943, World War 11.

Looks like it might be re-plated but still a cool find.

Possibly made to put on a bracelet or necklace. Still nice find.
