Did You Know it costs 1.62 cents to produce that 1 cent copper coin. the penny is made from 2.5% copper and 97.5% zinc and those metals have gone up in price….See Details.

Actually it’s been that price since 2006, and Congress won’t agree to make the penny out of cheaper materials. This is why we have such a deficit??? Or does congress think making them cheaper will make America Cheaper??? Who knows Congress can be a bunch of idiots sometimes, but I do know thats a strong argument to help do away with paper and coin money. But you should definitely save that penny jar for the future holds wealth for you!!!!!
sounds like another virtual fence type deal…
