<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 4124165, member: 27832&quot;]The Zincoln farce could be part of a long-term strategy to phase out the cent (if we believed the Mint dealt in long-term strategies).</p><p><br /></p><p>Most cents in &quot;circulation&quot; at this point are Zincolns. If the Mint stops issuing them for circulation, the ones currently circulating will continue to rot away, everyone will eventually get sick of getting corroded and corrosive change, and <b>the general public will be HAPPY to see them go</b>.</p><p><br /></p><p>(I put &quot;circulation&quot; in quotes, because I&#039;ll bet 80% or more or cents <i>today</i> are at some stage of a one-way trip from the Mint, to the banks, to the stores, to a change jar or parking lot, to the trash...)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
