The piece
- Hallmark or karat stamp: "Gold Plated Steel Penny"
From the seller's description. Not a guarantee of condition.
Market demand: Jewelry in Texas sell about 98% of the time, typically ~24 bids. Based on 959 completed sales over the last year.
A 1943 steel penny with a 24K gold plating, a novelty item rather than a real coin. Collectors of novelty and gold-plated coins and eBay sellers of wartime keepsakes are the buyers, and the market for these is small. Do not expect any precious-metal value, since the steel core and plating are the entire content, and check that the coin is actually steel, which a magnet test will confirm.
Estimated flip margin and comp range available with Pro. Summary may occasionally contain inaccuracies; check the full description before bidding.
