dquiroz68 Valued Member United States 58 Posts	Posted 04/03/2022 11:30 pm These pennies jump right onto the magnet and they weigh 2.6 and 2.7. I get so confused on error coins especially if they say that they aren't worth anything because they were still making them a certain way. I read up on every coin. But I really can't afford to buy the books and I like when links are provided to learn more about our money, which they say is not gonna be in circulation and we are gonna end up a cashless society and go straight digital.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21596 Posts	Posted 04/04/2022 07:26 am All regular 1943 cents were made from a steel core and weigh around 2.7g. Yours is just a regular cent as far as I can see. There is lots of information about coins in the sidebar without having to buy books. Report this Post to the Staff

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 04/05/2022 11:20 am 1943 bronze is valuable. 1944 steel is valuable. Unfortunately a lot of people hear about something being valuable and only see the dollar signs dancing around, and skip over the part where you have to know exactly what it is about something that makes it valuable.
