    This doesn't appear to be the sort of toning that would bring a premium. Also it's a modern coin that has been circulated. I believe it's only worth face value.

    Since it was put there after it left the mint, only what someone might give for it, but most would say very little other than face. You will find copper cents impressed with images, states, football logos, etc, but no real value, but always a surprising find :)

    I have a 1973 and 1999 they are very shiny with a glossy brown coating i tired wiping them but they still have that shine. Plus the 1973 weighs 3.1 grams

    Normal weight for a 1973, sounds like two normal cents.

    Maybe the 1973 is plated. I would have to see the 1999.

    You should really start you very own unique thread with pictures of both sides of the coin. Always pictures with any questions you may have.
