It is the 2006 no P magnetic cent that has value. Yours is just a regular business strike.
Keep searching though, there are good finds out there.

Jimmy is correct. I have searched around 2 million pennies over the years and found 47 of them and sold a few ranging from US$30 - 220 depending on condition. I have only found 2 magnetic with p and none non magnetic with p. But have not sent any for grading. If yours is non magnetic then its worth 1 cent

stuffguy- First of all, I am not mistaken. Whoever is giving you advise is wrong. I will try to explain. All copper plated zinc cents (non-magnetic) have no "P" composition mark. When the mint introduced Multi-plated steel (magnetic), the "P" composition mark was added to distinguish the two as they were both minted in 2006. Somehow during the minting of the non-magnetic zinc plated cents, (With no "P" mark) some of the Magnetic plated steel planchets made their way into the hopper. It is these magnetic cents with no "P" that are the valuable ones, not the regular no "P" non magnetic.
If you still want to believe your other source of information, then by all means go ahead but it was you that asked for opinions on this Canadian Coin Forum.

easiest way to find out is search ebay sold auctions for it , you will see,,by the way even if yours is the scarce one its really not worth the money to send it for grading in that condition

well I checked this site and its list the 2006 no p non magnetic as one other known specimen sold ms 66 for like $3000. but hey my locial coin shop is looking further into the specs and he confirmed what I just stated. anywho anybody can make mistakes and if I end up with a nice payday ill be sure to rub it in.. jk thank you for your honest and thoughtfull post I know your just trying to help me out and not get my hopes up if it comes back as nothing. but I wouldnt even be posting a picture of the coin if I didnt think it potentially would be something of importance. but like I said anyone can make mistakes. check out this link and see for yourself http://coinsandcanada.com/coins-pri...nt-2003-2012

And what about the billions of other no S non-magnetic coins minted in previous years. What would they be worth?

just to show you this roll is what you say your coin is 2006 non magnetic no p no logo as you can see I have a powerful magnnet and its not attracting the roll at all( I wish it was) if these coins were worth upto $3000 each I would be doin ok  but I sold a bunch of these rolls on ebay and the bids only went to a few dollars, I hope this will convinve you that your coin is common

Well done demonstration gidjit, but as you can probably remember from some of the previous postings here, no matter how much you can prove something, people are still going to say you are wrong. Personally, I'm through posting on this subject.

it's the P non magnetic that sold for $3000. yours clearly does not have the P under the queen. that is what JimmyD and gidgit are trying to tell you.
