P for Philadelphia was not used in 1942. If there is no mint mark then it was minted in Philadelphia. Otherwise the mint mark is on the obverse below the date.

Yes the mint mark is under the date if any. The cent is the only coin to never have a P for Philadelphia and still does not. So from 1793-2007 no P. It may not be a vaulable coin as money goes, but was minted the first full year of WW II. If it could talk, it would say that year didn't look good, for the good old USA. It would also be proud of the fact, that it actually had value and could buy something all by itself, not just pay a sales tax. When you own an old coin, you have a piece of history in your hand. Most of my favorite coins are worth less than $100.00 each but are so rich in history. Keep your coin.
