If I really spent my time sucking on pennies I'd probably have an alphabetical list of known diseases and ailments.

Appendicitis
Botulism
Cirrhosis
Dysentery
Elephantitis
Fatty Liver
Gonorrhea
HIV
Infertility
Jaundice
Kidney Failure
Laryngitus

Well, you see where I'm going here. I just wanted to get a laugh, I don't suck on pennies.

Sometimes you can tell the date of a Lincoln Cent just from the engraving details. They've had to re-engrave the master dies as they wear out over the years.

FYI--few diseases would live long on pennies, since copper is a pretty effective anti-microbal agent. For this reason, our currency uses ink with a high copper content. Then again, Anthrax spores might live on a penny for a long time....
