<p>[QUOTE="10gary22, post: 925392, member: 23626"]It sounds so strange to hear that. When I started my collection (such as it is) in 1957 we used them all the time. Called them "Lead Pennies" because they were the same color as the pencil leads we had in school. Then, because they were only minted in a single year, I started hoarding them. Even put some really nice ones in folders, etc. But you are correct about finding them in circulation. I haven't seen 1 in decades, I think.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
