I just went and bought something using coins, the cashier gave me a dirty look and complained about it. 😥😥😥😥

Most of these things seem equally true of both nickels and dimes...

Guys just make the penny worth 2 cents

I always pick up a penny if I see one.

i think it's funny that the stock footage used in a story about what /newly made/ pennies are worth features wheat-back pennies.

Sweden hasn't had pennies for years. Just sayin' ;-)

they are used for school projects as well as penny cannons.

But if you throw some nickles on the ground, would the same thing happen? Come on, you can't have such a one-sided experiment and pretend that the results make your hypothesis true. Also, dimes are smaller than pennies, so dogs can eat them too.

If I remember correctly, the half-penny was worth 2-3 times more than the penny is today when it was abolished. So just get rid of the stupid fucking coin.

LOVE John Oliver but i Totally Disagree with this Segment....One of The Reasons Lincoln was put on the Penny was due to his Involvement in Abolishing of Slavery,,Take all Coin Currency and Line them Up from Penny to Quarter and you will see the way Lincoln was viewed as a Slave Traitor,,,,,,,(SPOILER ALERT),,They Turned their Backs on Him as a President

Get on board with Canada.. No pennies necessary. 💸

I've seen people use pennies to cover floors as opposed to using floor tile. Looks cool, but incredibly time consuming, and a terrible idea in the winter.

That Cosby roast was brutal.

Is JardenZinc the only company the mint uses to make pennies??

Everyone's gonna be pissed when they see gas jump 5 cents
