How much is a set of pennies from 1941-1975 worth?

Answer 1

3916

Answer 2

Most of the dates from about 1950 onward were minted in huge quantities and do not carry much of a premium - maybe 5 or 10 cents each, depending on condition. You'll need to identify the following for each coin:

Its mint mark (under the date - blank = Phila, D = Denver, S = San Francisco)

Its condition (G = well worn, F = moderate wear, VF = slight wear, XF = almost none)

Then check the guide linked below for a range of retail prices. The only potentially very valuable coin in the group is the 1955 double die ("DD") cent, most of which have already been found. It's very easy to ID because the image is struck twice with a slight shift in between, giving it the appearance of a "ghost" image on an old TV set.
