That's an excellent point. One could argue that the cent impedes commerce, slowing cash transactions as people waste time counting or gathering...
Presumably because they are already tracked and reported.
I'm not sure how I could make that any clearer. I have no idea what your point is -- at this point, at least. :)

Much the same thing they do now when someone buys 3.22 lb of ground beef at $3.99/lb. They will round, up or down according to the nearest...
Man, I'm trying to imagine finding the entire 20th-century run of Barber dimes in circulation.
Too long. It was already trivial and pointless in the 1980s when it went over to the time-release self-destruct composition. Please put it out of...

There are lots of things that will effectively polish silver, or copper, or gold, or any other metal. Polishing a coin ruins it for collectors.
In my opinion, grade gamesmanship is one way the hobby is moving away from pure, childlike enthusiasm and fascination. But I agree that it's to...
Wandered by the CoinStar at Harris-Teeter early this afternoon, and there was a double scoop in the reject bin. A big pile of mostly copper...
