The most rare and valuable American penny is the 1943 bronze Lincoln cent. It is estimated that only a few of these coins were minted in error, as the U.S. Mint was supposed to be producing coins using zinc-coated steel that year due to metal shortages during World War II. These rare 1943 bronze cents can fetch prices of over $1 million at auctions.

Why is a 1945 penny worth so much?

Old coins are valuable because they're old and rare. The 1945 penny isn't worth remarkably more than other coins of its approximate age (in fact, it's worth a lot less than a 1944 steel penny, or a 1943 copper penny, both of which are extremely rare).

The 1943 penny sticks to a magnet because it is made of steel, not copper like other pennies from that era. While a 1943 copper penny is rare and valuable, it is not worth a million dollars. The most valuable 1943 pennies are those mistakenly struck in copper instead of steel and can fetch tens of thousands of dollars at auction.
