Is this 1909 Penny worth anything?

I came across a 1909 penny in my grandfathers collection and some places I look at online look like there are a decent price tied to these. Others, not so much.

I hope these pictures are good enough of a view, but I am curious of your opinions. I am just curious what is the difference in those sold high online and what I have (might have).

Thanks in advance!

    Just a replice/fake "coin". Also too large.

  • Definitely some sort of replica. Curious about what it says under the left wheat stock.

    Same answer as your other post.
    It is a replica copper round, sometimes called a coaster coin because of its size.
    Has no numistic value but you can keep as a novelty.

    Certainly a modern low quality fake. Everyone who has answered is correct about this “coin”. Wish there was better news!
