<p>[QUOTE="SilverSurfer, post: 796243, member: 21603"]There was a reason for all those "Those coins are worth money" machines that you seen in supermarkets. It's because they were hoping that people who were hoarding coins would dump the pennies in there that have more copper in them then modern day dimes. So, in effect, they could take your penny and turn it into a dime. Not my pennies though....I hang onto the copper ones like others here. I'm starting to think hoarding nickles might not be a bad idea either. Apparently the mint only made about 10% of what they normally do for nickles last year, presumably because copper and nickle are becoming expensive. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here, check this site out....<a href="http://www.coinflation.com/coin_calculators.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinflation.com/coin_calculators.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinflation.com/coin_calculators.html</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
