What is this 1925 penny worth?

[steven26]

Hi,

I have found this 1925 Lincoln Wheat Penny. The only unusual thing about it is that it has ring-shaped indentations on the face of it (see photo). Does anyone know what these markings mean or what the penny may be worth?

Thanks,
Steven

2.3 cents is the value because it is bronze.

It's bronze, not pure copper.

Actually, it's 95% copper, and 5% zinc and tin (bronze).
