What if we were born after '58? I can post a picture of a cereal box.

I was bummed the first time I bought a box of Wheaties and it turned out to be cereal.

I was born in 1986, so my birth penny isn't even made of copper.

Dang, I must be getting old :)

So there are Memmies and Zincies? My newest grand baby will be a first year Shieldy :)

I think the 59'ers got ripped off BTW.

I was born in 1982. So does that mean I'm a half-breed between the copper and zinc? lol
