1941 Wheat Penny. No mint mark, the L in Libery is on the rim. I know nothing about coins so any help is appreciated.

It's worth a few cents. No mintmark means it was from the Philadelphia mint, because it was the original main mint Philadelphia never used a mintmark until 1980. Even after 1980 the Philadelphia minted cent didn't carry a mintmark except for one year 2017. This was to commemorate the founding of the mint. L on the rim is normal, they were all like this back then, and as the die wore it would get closer. There are a lot of scammers trying to sell L on rim cents as a valuable error, but they are not.
 

Cutler is dead on... and when you think a few cents it is exactly that... .3 cents is the value.
