Did any of you see this article? "LINK"

Quote: "Starting in 2006, the U.S. Mint will release five new pennies per year for the next 629 years".

Quote: "The U.S. Mint has designed a folder for collecting and displaying county pennies. The cardboard murals, measuring 8 feet by 35 feet, will be available at most Walgreens Stores, or directly from the mint by mail for $4.95 plus $179 for postage and handling."

Picture from link above:



Well I haven't seen anything about Countyhood Penny Program on the U.S. Mint website. Wonder where this report got his information?

Good one. Had me going until I saw that it would take 629 years to complete the program.
