<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1766157, member: 66"]I don't think you could make the cent small enough to make it profitable. And once you get past a certain point in size the manufacturing cost start to go back up again due to difficulty in handling them. You might be able to low cost through size reduction to break even, but you will probably be talking about a cent 10 mm or less in diameter, or about 2/3 the size of a silver three cent piece. (Think aspirin tablet but thinner) NO ONE will want to use them and they would become even more of a "one way" coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
