5 Copper Coins Worth a Lot of Money

1982-D Lincoln Penny (Copper Small Date)

This is a rare coin for a couple of reasons. First, it contains errors involving numbers. Second, it was not supposed to be minted with copper in 1982, but there were “leftover copper planchets” that the U.S. Mint struck with zinc to create the error, according to CoinValue. Prices range from $10,000 to $30,000 and more.
