I was going through a penny box and found a lot of 1994's. So I had an Idea If we would all pull out of circulation any 1994 penny we find we could reduce the chances of finding it in circulation. So we are going to try to pull out 1,000 for round 1, 2,000 for round 2, 3,000 for round 3, and so on up to round 100. By that time we would have pulled out 5,050,000 Lincolns! ONLY REMOVE The no mint mark(Philadelphia) ONES. Do NOT remove any D's or S's.


Okay, I give up, this idea is FAR fetched.

Neat idea, but I see one problem. There were over 3.4 billion 1994 P's minted. Thus 5,050,000 (although a lot of pennies) would only represent 0.077% of the entire population.
But hey, that could keep ya busy if you decide to do it!!!

The Hunt brothers tried to do this with silver. Good luck on your endeavors.
