I found this 1943 penny the 3 looks double die?. the 4 looks worn off? there's a pin hole above date? it also looks like there's a very worn mint but can not tell? if so is it worth much?

Looks like a normal steel cent. There is a struck through error on the 4. Seems to happen a few times to many that year.

Looks like a rust mark that was re-processed and plated over. The 3 looks normal to me.
un-circulated coin

If it were a D mint mark punch, it would be raised, not recessed into the surface of the coin.

jaxon85,
You should not clean coins as a general rule. If you had an error/variety you took away most if not all the value of it by cleaning it.
