The penny has come to an end. The US will no longer produce the cent because it costs much more than it is worth. To mint a penny costs nearly 4 cents. Clearly, this is just throwing money away. However, this will make some expressions inexplicable to future generations.
- Penny for your thoughts
- My two cents
- Bad penny
- Pretty penny
- Penny pincher
- A red cent
- A penny saved is a penny earned
Rounding to the nearest nickel for change will be an interesting change. Will that become a penalty for paying cash; always round UP to the nearest nickel?
