| Rare 1943 Steel Penny - from the Philadelphia Mint - head only`
1943 steel cents are U.S. one-cent coins that were struck in steel due to wartime shortages of copper. The Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco mints each produced these 1943 Lincoln cents. The unique composition of the coin low-grade steel coated with zinc, instead of the previously 95%-copper-based bronze composition has led to various nicknames, such as wartime cent, steel war penny, zinc cent and steelie.` |
