All well and good, but what about the guy who devoted a thread expressing his desire to get one of these next year?  (What I would like to know is why a member gave his imprimatur to resurrecting the wild-haired Birch cent, but I am too ashamed to ask.  🤣

    I remember reading one in a numismatic publication some time ago. It went something like this:

    One day in 1920, farmer Jack saw a newspaper advertisement that read, "I WILL PAY ONE DOLLAR FOR 1902 PENNIES!" Jack immediately checked his change jar and found that he had fifteen of the then common Indian cents bearing the 1902 date. He promptly mailed them to the address provided in the ad, which was in a distant city. Ten days later, he received a reply that said his dollar would be forthcoming as soon as the advertiser received the remaining 1,887 "pennies". Jack read the letter several times. Then he went out behind the barn and kicked himself.

   Well, you said a stupid coin joke!

This isn't mine but is a snippet on an episode of Family Guy which was on my tv a few nights ago as a rerun. You can find it on YouTube under Pixar coins. The nickel is lamenting about how it used to be useful for things and then got thrown in the trash. I was having stomach pains from laughing!

The denominations came together and debated if they strike could they be worth more money.

If you throw a penny in a river could you call it watching your cash flow?

[powermad5000]

It costs more to make a penny than it is worth. Makes cents doesn't it?

[powermad5000]

Why did the coin collector put all his coins in the freezer? He wanted cold hard cash.

Re the "nagging question," what happened -- according to unimpeachable sources -- was Sacagawea caught Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings, in flagrante delicto, in a seldom used drawing room, and the rest as they say was herstory.  🤣

Correct misspelling

A question about ending the penny on another site reminded me of one of my dad's favorite jokes.  We spent years working together and traveling.  Every time he saw an earth work job using heavy equipment to dig a hole he would say, "Ye Gods.  Look, another Dutchman musta lost a nickel there!"  Yes, my dad was full Dutch.  I am of watered down stock and only use equipment like that when I lose a quarter.  James
