1943 Bronze Lincoln Penny Front
This is similar to the 1943-D Lincoln Bronze Penny because it was also minted in bronze by mistake. Even though this was not the only one made at the mint, the coin is still pretty distinguished. After all, it was the only “red” penny to be made at the Philadelphia Mint during that year!

What made this so rare is that the Philadelphia mint’s coins do not come with a mintmark. The coin in the photo was sold in a private sale in Tampa, Florida, back in 2018. We do not know the exact amount, but we know it went for more than a million bucks. Whoa.
