How much are pennies nickels and dimes worth from the 1940s?

[Edit]

Answer

Mintages of pennies, nickels and dimes in the 1940's and 1950's was quite high, so they are considered common -- with few exceptions.

In circulated condition, wheat cents are worth about 2 cents each. Steel cents from 1943 are worth 5-10 cents each.

Nickels will generally have little or no added value. The exceptions being the 1942-1945 silver nickels (identified by a large P, D or S above the building on the back) that are worth about 20 cents, and the 1950-D nickel which is worth a couple dollars.

There are no dimes in this time period that have any significant collector value in circulated condition. Their value will be based on the silver they contain -- currently about 40 cents apiece.
