Circus Pillar of the Community United States 3079 Posts	Posted 08/20/2016 06:05 am It seems some companies will do anything to US coinage to make a buck! Here is a gold plated penny. It is no wonder some people from other countries have such a skewed view of our country. Glad I found it in the 50% off bargain bin Report this Post to the Staff

They made 9,999 of them in 2001 (15 years ago) and are still trying to get rid of them.

DL20K Pillar of the Community Poland 3201 Posts	Posted 08/20/2016 1:52 pm $49.35 (including shipping) for a random common cent (it doesn't even say it has to be a Wheat cent)... which is plated but (presumably) only on one side and (presumably) cannot be safely removed from its encapsulation? Now even the "unsearched" rolls of wheats on ebay sound like a great deal! Report this Post to the Staff
