<p>[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 4585934, member: 301"]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 has led to various nicknames, such as wartime cent, steel war penny, zinc cent and steelie. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1943_steel_cent" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1943_steel_cent" rel="nofollow">Wikipedia</a></p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=1943+steel+cent+value&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwia-MXGl976AhV5KlkFHZfiACAQ6BMoAHoECGgQAg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=1943+steel+cent+value&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwia-MXGl976AhV5KlkFHZfiACAQ6BMoAHoECGgQAg" rel="nofollow">Value</a>: $0.01 U.S. dollars</p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=1943+steel+cent+composition&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwia-MXGl976AhV5KlkFHZfiACAQ6BMoAHoECGYQAg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=1943+steel+cent+composition&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwia-MXGl976AhV5KlkFHZfiACAQ6BMoAHoECGYQAg" rel="nofollow">Composition</a>: 99% steel with a thin layer of zinc</p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=1943+steel+cent+diameter&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwia-MXGl976AhV5KlkFHZfiACAQ6BMoAHoECGUQAg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=1943+steel+cent+diameter&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwia-MXGl976AhV5KlkFHZfiACAQ6BMoAHoECGUQAg" rel="nofollow">Diameter</a>: 19.05 mm</p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=1943+steel+cent+edge&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwia-MXGl976AhV5KlkFHZfiACAQ6BMoAHoECGoQAg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=1943+steel+cent+edge&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwia-MXGl976AhV5KlkFHZfiACAQ6BMoAHoECGoQAg" rel="nofollow">Edge</a>: Plain[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
