Talk about a lucky penny. It was actually worth $1 million.
That was the final bid by an unknown buyer for the one-cent copper coin minted in 1793, the first year the United States produced its own coins. Its sale was one of the biggest deals at the coin show and annual convention of the Florida United Numismatists at the Orange County Convention Center.
Remember that FDN donates a penny to deserving people for every point earned on our website!!!!!
