    This 1908-S Indian head cent, worth $250, was spent at a newsstand in 2006 by Scott Travers. In order to be worth a couple of hundred dollars, the coin must display the letter 'S' on the reverse.
    This well-worn 1914-D Lincoln head cent is worth $300. In order to command this value, however, there must be the letter 'D' underneath the date of 1914.

    See a penny, pick it up, it may be worth a thousand bucks.

    Noted coin dealer Scott Travers announced three years ago he had released three rare and valuable pennies into circulation, but none of the coins has been reported found.......
