1943-D Lincoln Bronze Penny Front
There is just one 1943-D Lincoln Bronze penny on the planet, and this is it. The coin was made in bronze alloy instead of zinc-plated steel. The Second World War was still raging at the time, so the mint tried to avoid making coins in copper and bronze. This is believed to be the only one from the Denver mint.
