During world war II copper was being conserved for bullet casings, etc. so pennies were mainly made with steel in the war years, they were initially prone to rusting and being stuck in magnetic slug traps. the 1943 copper penny is one of the most valuable collectables, only 40 were produced, the whereabouts of about 15 are known, with one selling for $200,000
