I’ve recently been interested in coin collecting and have been checking this forum often for help!

I’ve done some googling and YouTubing (and searched here as well) but I cannot seem to find a consensus on if it is valuable (more so meaning worth getting evaluated and graded - again apologies if I’m using the incorrect terminology) </p><p><br /></p><p>I was hoping someone here could give me some more information (for instance I’m curious if the coins that have “defects” from the machines are more valuable than those without the defects. Such as the doubling and things like that). </p><p><br /></p><p>Attached are the pictures next to a 2017 penny just to show the color difference if that is important although I read that these 1945s are darker due to being made with shell casings? Perhaps someone could correct me if that’s wrong info. Thank you all again for taking the time to read this and all your expertise ❤️[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

I’m fairly new with terminology and such - so please forgive me if I come off unknowledgable or unaware (I love learning so any information or links to terminology for beginner collectors, I’d grately appreciate!) Anyhow my son who is two, is obsessed with handing me “coins” when he finds them on the ground and persistently handed me two pennies this morning, one being this little 1945 wheat penny. I’ve done some googling and YouTubing (and searched here as well) but I cannot seem to find a consensus on if it is valuable (more so meaning worth getting evaluated and graded - again apologies if I’m using the incorrect terminology) I was hoping someone here could give me some more information (for instance I’m curious if the coins that have “defects” from the machines are more valuable than those without the defects.

Attached are the pictures next to a 2017 penny just to show the color difference if that is important although I read that these 1945s are darker due to being made with shell casings? Perhaps someone could correct me if that’s wrong info. Thank you all again for taking the time to read this and all your expertise ❤️[/QUOTE]
