Very interesting!  Quote: you'll have to pardon the author's technically incorrect reference to them as "pennies" No one cares. Even the Mint calls the pennies.

am I missing something? The picture accompanying the title 1943 D shows a 1943 with no mint mark?

Fun read. Calling them pennies, as the U.S. Mint does, shouldn't be an issue. But I do want those Bison nickels renamed

Article is incorrect there are a few large cents that have cracked the $1 million level.

I agree about the "penny" issue. Sure, it's technically incorrect but everyone uses "pennies" and "cents" interchangeably and have so for a long, long time. Penny = Cent in my book.

Ever notice those Nickels are usually called Buffalo nickels and yet that is a Bison on the thing.  And isn't a Quarter a 2 bit thing? And a $5 bill is a Fin and why is it called a bill anyway? All is just our money system.
