I came across a penny that, instead of the Lincoln memorial, has "one cent" printed on the back. It's in very good condition, but it's year is 1956, which makes me doubt it's worth much. I was just curious if it had any special value other than one cent, of course.

Its called a wheatback penny, the have books for collectors where you collect one from each year they were made. Its not worth much unless you have a complete collection.

No, but if the value of copper keeps going up, maybe it will be worth more than $.01 one day.

NO. That was the standard wheatback printing for that era.
