How much is a 2010 Penny Shield worth?
In Average Circulated (AC) condition it's worth around 1 cent, one in certified mint state (MS+) condition could bring as much as $15 at auction. This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale. So when we say Average Circulated, we mean in a similar condition to other coins circulated in 2010, and mint state meaning it is certified MS+ by one of the top coin grading companies. *** [?].
