If you never went out of your way using gas to go to the bank and valued your time at nothing the value in the copper penny would have to be at five cents before you made any money. </p><p><br /></p><p>My advice if you want to invest in copper buy stock in copper mining company&#039;s[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
