About this coin’s value
This coin is composed of billon (.010 silver) (90% cu, 10% ag). It carries no precious-metal melt value, so its worth is numismatic — driven by date, mint mark, grade and demand. For copper-era cents, the metal itself can exceed face value — see the copper penny calculator and our copper penny guide.
