[QUOTE="littlehugger, post: 4802791, member: 58633"]Well, current cents are zinc with only a small coating of copper. Probably not worth the expense of melting. Lots and lots of people have been putting back the copper ones in expectation of making a profit when copper goes up. If it does, a horde of people will try to sell their cents, and price goes down. Save them for the long term. Even the current copper washed ones will be worth a premium one day. Just cherry pick the prettiest and better dates. Its not often you get to buy up collectibles at face value. One cent![/QUOTE]
