"My friends who see my collection sometimes ask what something costs. I tell them and they are in awe at my stupidity."

Probably only a couple billion survive and every day more than a million more are destroyed.
These were set aside in substantial quantities so they'll never be rare but finding well struck and pristine pieces is something of a rarity.
Zinc is a terrible metal to make coins since it is toxic and highly reactive. We spend three cents to make a "coin" that has no value and makes us poorer every time it is used. Then we have to make the same coin over and over again because they are disposable and so worthless that they spend more time in a drawer than making change. I guess waste caused by making coins isn't as hazardous to creating global warming as waste generated by having jobs in America.
Bump for an answer as to what in the heck the question was.

Finding decent examples of this is tough. This one appears Gem except for the spotting.

D'oh. I didn't even notice it. It is gemmy and vaguely PL still.

Yeah, I also have no idea what is special about that coin. Ambro51, please tell us.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
<< <i>It was the first cent used to start a small company named Google? >>
More likely, it was the $tart of one of Warren Buffett$ billion$!!!!!
