yotie Pillar of the Community United States 3077 Posts	Posted 08/03/2009 08:21 am well I think they have the new design for the 2010 cent if they make em only time will tell i personaly wish the would rework our currency rather than health care i am sure the former will save more money for tax payers than the latter Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 187702 Posts	Posted 08/03/2009 11:16 am The cent is expensive to make. Even if they change the composition to something cheaper, it will only remain economical for the short term. In my opinion, the cent should no longer be minted for circulation, just like the Kennedy half dollar. So if it were up to me: Redesign the reverse for 2010 onward Not Issued For Circulation (Mint sets, proof sets, and direct ship only) Retain the Bronze composition (95% Copper + 5% Tin/Zinc) Coin Collector Since 1978 Avatar Old Avatar 7070 Eisenhower Australia Canada World CCF Members on eBay CCF eBay Search Engine Report this Post to the Staff
