Well, been hoarding out copper cents but wasn't sure what I was going to do with them...looks like I might be able to extract the metal value sooner rather than later. 😁🤑
The proposed legislation not only eliminates the cent, but introduces a bimetallic $2 coin which would fill the collector itch as well...meantime I'll keep putting away silver dimes, quarters, and halfs for barter.
I doubt that we'll need to barter... I've been writing about New $2 Silver Coins... Where did you hear about Bimetallic $2 Coins...??? By the way... The metal value of the Copper Pennies are nothing, when compared to the Spending Power of their Face Values...
I certainly hope it doesn't get that bad, BUT I want to be able to get some eggs if it does...
Heard about it here:

The American Currency and Modern Efficiency Act
We'll see how far it gets.
On the other side of the reset, a dozen eggs will probably cost under 10 Cents...
