How much would a 1974 alumiun penny be worth

I know that the legality of this coin is up in the air but I just would like to know how much this coin is worth and if anyone has ever found one. Besides the one that was donated.

Considering you would have to sell it on the black market it is hard to say.

 

Unless your family had some inside connections in Washington, it is highly doubtful that you have a 1974 aluminum Cent. Keep in mind that it is fairly easy to alter the color of a coin. Have you weighed the coin? Could you post some photos for us?

Thanks,

That's what I suspect too.
