<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eskychess, post: 199836, member: 4692&quot;]Well Satoot - I guess you called me on the carpet. I honestly don&#039;t have the time to waste to look it up if it does indeed exist - nor do I honestly even care. I&#039;ve always grown up that it&#039;s wrong to destroy money and I have to believe somewhere in the lawbooks - if not enforced that it is illegal to do so to some capacity. Even the guys at the metal collection won&#039;t take the copper pennies - they&#039;re scared to destroy them and those backwater hillbillies will do just about anything. So if you want to go destroy your money (LEGALLY)- be my guest! You totally missed the point of my message if all you&#039;re worried about is the wording of the law.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tom&nbsp; - Excellent points! An old coin dealer told me to save the copper pennies - preferably the BU ones. He said they are going to slowly disappear and like other readers have mentioned in earlier postings - it will be similar to silver.&nbsp; I like what you say about NOT melting the pennies - they&#039;re already in a state that is acceptable.&nbsp; I don&#039;t like to see any of my precious coins be destroyed unless it is worn to nothing or badly corroded etc. You never know, in 5,000 years there could be 50 billion people living within the solar system and those junky old coppers we have today, those future people may wish to say, wow look at this old piece of history I&#039;m holding! I&#039;m so glad some idiot didn&#039;t melt these for bullion! lol</p><p><br /></p><p>Take Care -</p><p>Esky[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
