7 Wheat Pennies in Your Change Worth a Fortune (One Sold for $1.7Million!)

Could one of the wheat pennies in your change be worth a fortune? In this countdown we reveal 7 rare wheat pennies worth money — the exact dates, mint marks, and errors that turn an ordinary old penny into one worth thousands, and in one case, over a million dollars. Before you spend, clean, or sell a single old penny, watch this and learn exactly what to look for. You'll learn the simple at-home checks that take just seconds — how to read the date and mint mark, how to spot a doubled die with your naked eye, and the magnet test that reveals the legendary 1943 copper penny. We also cover how people get tricked by fakes and cleaning, how to authenticate and sell the right way, and a bonus penny so rare that almost nobody ever talks about it.
