No more pennies will be minted

reminds me ..

in the times of the Deutschmark the 5 Mark piece had more real silver in at as 5 Mark value

so new pieces had to be printed without silver in it
 
We just use nickels as the lowest denomination. When given change as taxes can make the total value in the pennies the cashier just rounds up or down. Stores usually price their products in such a way that with taxes its a round number to a.0 or 5 as the final denominator.
WILL BE EAZYIER and every thing will cost 4 cents more.
 
People must be hoarding 2025 pennies. It’s November and I’ve only come across two all year.
It is illegal to melt them down for the copper value and they're no longer pure copper anyway. An alloy. Before 1985 they were 95% copet. Nowadays they're only 2.5 % copper. Mostly zinc. Not worth it. The high figures they gave for making the penny were probably based on the old formula. It's just another scam to make more money off the public. Watch what happens next !
 
". . . . Now we find ourselves in a post-Keynesian era that is dictated largely by unrestrained technological innovation that is quickly uprooting our customs and traditions. Tech companies like Apple can seamlessly put a user’s wallet, ID and ability to pay into their iPhone device with the swipe of a screen, and eventually will be able to do so with a microchip. The rise of cryptocurrency only hastens the transition to digital money. What is stopping our elites from phasing out paper money and other coins as they have the penny?

The end of the penny is another step down the blood-stained road toward a compulsory Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) that tracks all of our activity in the marketplace and serves as a de facto Mark of the Beast from the book of Revelation. To his great credit, President Trump has vowed to never implement a CBDC, but perhaps a successor will not be so wise. Digital dystopia is right around the corner, and the removal of the penny should be a sobering reminder of just how close we may be to fulfilling Orwell’s darkest prophecies. . . "
 
I think the democrats will bring the penny back when they get back in office. It's a little bit racist for Trump's administration to remove the penny with it being brownish/copper and Lincoln having split from the republican party.

After all it costs way more money to make the nickel and the dime, yet they see no need to remove either. The republicans could have scaled back the minting of the penny but NOT get rid of it all together. That's a very bad idea.
