have a penny that might be worth something, need answers.?

Question

I just found today a penny minted in 1946, with the wheat around it and a 's' below the date.  Abraham Lincoln on the dated side and ' One Cent ' on the other with the wheat circling.  Any idea on what it might be worth ?  Not a coin collector myself, but this seems pretty cool.

Probably some where around 50 cents, to get a better more accurate price take it to several collector shops in your area.

Here is a link that gives the value of coins. A 1946 S penny (means it was minted in San Francisco) is worth only about 4 cents according to this site. I agree that it is cool though, and if you save it, who knows how much it will be worth in 20 years!

in the event that they're interior the comparable shape as greater moderen pennies, they could be properly worth some thing good - if there is an (S) decrease than the 300 and sixty 5 days, it is going to likely be properly worth some thing sometime through fact the Lincoln Cents with an (S) from the years 1968-1974 have been minted in drastically fewer parts than (D) mint marks, or those minted in Pennsylvania.

Honestly, it's worth nothing but a penny. Maybe if it was mint and graded, you might get $7

It's a very common year.
