how many pennies do you have? if you have 70, i would say seventy cents. because those penies are still in circulation today and a collection could just be spent.

If it is just the normal run of cents, you can keep them for a longer time or spend them. I doubt they would go up in value in your life time. There are just to many around. There are a few cents in this group worth money. 1955 double die is the big one as well as other double dies such as 1958, 1969-S, 1971-S and 1972. There is a 1970-S so-called small date that commands a premium, there is a small premium on the 1960 small dates. There are over mint mark coins a 1944-D over S and a 1946-S over D. Most of the above are rare or at least very scarce, except for the small date coins, there are a little scarce. Now for the 1943 copper and I will toss in the 1944 zinc plated steel cent. No new ones have been found for years, the ones out there have been just selling from person to person. A few more may be found but I am not going to hold my breath on it. Sorry for the disappointing news. Even if it was an uncirculated set, it still would not be worth a lot. Now you can forget all the above, if you really meant pennies, for they were minted in Great Britain and the British commonwealth of nations and their prices are different. In the USA we have cents not pennies.

Hi. I am a coin dealer in the Midwest. The correct answer is, unfortunately, that this run of dates is for the most part very common. If in average used condition, the 1941 through 1958 cents are only worth 2-3 cents each on average...and the 1959-up coins are only worth 1 cent each. If they are all still Uncirculated, assuming the set has all the plain, "D", and "S" coins, the collection is worth perhaps $10-$15 to an interested buyer...these are all very common pieces so most collectors already have them. Hope this info helped.

Depends on the condition, mint state and rarity. You need to get a collectors book at the library and look them up one by one. then put them in individual sleeves marked with the information and cost as of what source and list them on e-bay. Some pennies are valuable and some are just worth $0.02. If you are truly interested it is worth the effort. If you are looking to sell quicker and the volume is there you can take them to a coin dealer and be paid at $0.02 - $0.05 each.
