Yeah, I was actually looking into that a bit ago.
Costs around 1.5 cents to mint a penny, government is throwing away money by minting them.

why do these engravings look so goofy
They really are bad. Andrew Jackson's in particular is rather horrible. Maybe the US Mint shopped the engraving job out to India?
Was the OP serious? I'm still trying to figure this out...Judging by the fact that he hasn't responded since, (presumably out of embarrassment) I'd sadly say, yes.
definitely think its a real OP.
those coins really do look like garbage though, they even take a look at the coins before they started to make them?
To cut the TC some slack, this is the first time I've seen them too. Dunno, maybe he genuinely thought it was from back then ;o
The whole left side of Jacksons face is just terrible.
He looks like he's succumbed to cerebral palsy lolOriginally Posted by Blarg
