It was one of the U.S. Mint's gimmicks for 2017. Since it is the only year that the "P" was actually on the Philadelphia Mint's cent, it may be worth a little more but there were over 4 billion struck. What is the more valuable cent is the 2017 enhanced uncirculated Lincoln. There were less than 300,000 minted.

I'm just surprised you beat Sam to the mark
