SIMMYBABEZ 04-10-2008, 05:52 PM Lol yes, I've heard that the coin is worth alot more than it's asking price. rosebud* 04-10-2008, 05:53 PM yup if you think about all the work that goes into it. I saw this whole thing on how they make coins and money. it's crazy Elizabeth 04-10-2008, 05:57 PM I've seen that it costs around anywhere from 1.2 - 1.4 on some different sites. Crazy! Victoria 04-10-2008, 05:59 PM LOLOL!!! INTERESTING!!! Kris 04-10-2008, 06:07 PM That is interesting! leftover 04-10-2008, 06:12 PM Before you know it, we'll all have to resort to using AAFES pogs. :no We have TONS that DH brought home from Iraq.. MarineLover 04-10-2008, 06:14 PM Yea the word around the bank is the us government is thinking of discontinuing the penny, but I think it would never happen... luvmysoldier2007 04-10-2008, 06:21 PM hmmm Ellen 04-10-2008, 06:24 PM When I was stationed in Japan, AAFES rounded up/down to the nearest nickel. It was too expensive to ship pennies, so they just didn't. Wonder what would happen if they stopped producing them...... Elizabeth 04-11-2008, 10:18 AM Yeah we don't use them here and it's quite nice! MaggieG0721 04-11-2008, 10:23 AM not sure if they would discontinue the penny, but it's possible. |
