Not too sure if I'm posting in the right area but I had 2 questions, 1 is this penny worth being sent in to be graded or throw it back in the jar and 2 I heard one of the 1947 pennies were rare and I was wondering if someone could help me determine witch one mine would be. I found this in one of my jars I had laying around that I did not get a chance to sort through. I've always collected my pennies out of habit of not really caring to try to spend them so I have no clue where it originated from. Anyways thanks in advance guys.

Common coin, not worth getting graded. Grade is probably a vf20-30

There are three varieties of the 1947 cent and none of them are rare.
What you have is the 1947 Maple Leaf Blunt 7 variety. Unless they
are in MS condition, the value is about the same for all 3 varieties.

Thank you for the speedy replies guys, would anyone be able to point me in the right direction on how to tell when a coin has been cleaned? I'm just wondering if there is any info on how to tell since I am new to actually looking at them I'm not quite sure what to look out for but there are a few online I was looking to purchase and I really dont want to end up buying ones that have been tampered with by some degree, I was always told to never clean coins. So I dont want any "cleaned" ones ending up in my collection.
