It may not even be worth one cent much longer if it’s disintegrating as many of the zinc based cents do.

But if you want anything more helpful, you’ll need to post good pictures of the front and back.

@Blueyed4l .... Welcome aboard....Your cent is likely only worth a cent... and maybe less, depending on the state of deterioration. Pictures would help us tell you more, but most likely, it is Post Mint Damage (PMD) Cheers, RickO

It is always worth 1 cent no matter how worn it is. You can always spend it or drop it in a charity bin.
