About this coin’s value

This coin is composed of nickel brass (64% copper, 20% zinc, 16% nickel) and weighs 4.9 g. 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.
