Pennies and nickels now cost more to make than they're worth.

"A penny, which consists of 97.5 percent zinc and 2.5 percent copper, cost 1.26 cents to make as of Tuesday. And a nickel -- 75 percent copper and the rest nickel -- cost 7.7 cents, based on current commodity prices"

um...this is bad isnt it?

We've been printing our money out of thin air since we went off the gold standard in the 1970's. It literally is worthless, but you need it.

A penny saved is 1.26 cents earned
