<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 26135934, member: 101855&quot;]It was my understanding that Congress gave George Washington to power to reduce the weight of the half cent and cent earlier in 1795. He did not exercise that power until the end of 1795. Production of the plain edge copper coins began during the last week of December 1795.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
