Everyone with a penny for an Avatar say I

I got a penny/cent as my avatar too. Had the same pic up since I joined and I picked it because it's a great photo of a great coin and it's from 1909

Half better than none??

 

How bout a penny for a name? lol

 

Lol Bunny cent. I don't have a avatar as a penny but better yet, Pikachu. I don't use coins as a avatar, I like to stick out of the crowd so I picked Pikachu.

 

Guilty as charged Though once I get my order in I'll be changing it to a penny with a clover on it, like that guys bunny-penny. I'm getting some that say 'I love you' on the coin, know a few coin collecting ladies that'll dig it

Also, DUDE JELLO!!! Where did you get the half cent??? Awesome!!!

But seriously... what is the difference between a penny and a cent? o.o

 

Look out, here it comes.............

 

technically speaking, a cent is american, a penny is british.

 

Or, penny is the word for a coin with the value of one cent in the U.S. That would fit with nickel, which we use regularly to describe the U.S. five cent piece.

 

Coin from Mario Bros.

I'm a nerd about coins and games.

 

" i "

 

IIIII

Sorry, wrong thread.

 

Say I

How about a 1/3 Cent (Or around there).

This is one type of denominations that I collect in Error Coins.

 

Here is the Reverse side & both side by side ......LOL

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!!!

 

Nice....looks like that one got caught in a pacman game.

 

I love it, never personally seen nor touched one of the sort but it's amazing!

 

Awesome coin! I've never seen one like it!

 

I feel so left out
I think there are some loose cents in the General Lee rolling around...lol

 

My avatar is a Civil War token, but the ready acceptance of them is why the government changed the composition of our small cents to bronze from copper-nickel. I chose this particular cwt merchant/issuer as he is a distant ancestor. This token is rather scarce, with an R-8 rarity (5-10 known). I have 5 of his 15 varieties.

"Penny" is a commonly-used synonym for "cent". It's pedantic to insist people only use the latter. Not only that, it goes against the more common usage; few people outside the collecting fraternity would call them "cents".

It's pretty much a centsless argument.
