This tiny Lincoln cent of 1943 in copper is one of the most popular Lincoln cent rarities.

Only about 15-17 of the 1943 Lincoln copper cents are known to exist, most of them struck at the Philadelphia mint.

"In 1981, a 1943 copper penny sold for $10,000. Almost 3 decades later, the coin is selling at auctions for over $200,000."

Beware that there are many fake 1943 copper pennies.
