<p>[QUOTE=&quot;d.t.menace, post: 2091157, member: 18944&quot;]On coin forums we should always use cent if we&#039;re talking about the US one. It can avoid some confusion. However, since cent is a homophone,in spoken conversation sometimes it&#039;s better to use penny.</p><p>If I see a stranger drop a coin and I go pick it up to give it back to him and say, &quot;hey buddy I picked up your cent&quot;. He might think I&#039;m making a comment about his showering habits. So to avoid confusion and a possible black eye I&#039;m going to say &quot;hey buddy, I picked up your penny.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
