Answer 3

It isn't worth much.  They were common in 1943.  The army needed the material for weapons so steel pennies were made.

I got one and I was pretty excited.  If you happen to come across a 1943 regular penny, then you struck it rich because one sold in the early 2000's for a million dollars.

Answer 4

IT'S NOT SILVER, IT'S STEEL. IT'S PROBABLY WORTH A COUPLE OF DOLLAR'S DEPENDING ON THE CONDITION.
