This penny is actually made of steel, not silver. These were produced in lieu of copper coins in 1943 to conserve precious metal reserves. This coin is worth at least 8 cents in typical conditions, but as much as 50 cents to $1 in UNC condition.
It isn't. Normal 1943 pennies are worth 3-15 cents depending on condition because they are made out of steel and are collected even by non-collectors as curiosities. The only expensive 1943 pennies are the copper pennies which were made by mistake. When they turned on the machines to make the 1943 steel pennies, some copper blanks were left inside the machines and so a tiny amount of 1943 copper pennies were created by mistake. Since there might only be ~15 made, they are worth a lot. But an ordinary 1943 penny is only worth a few cents.
