The U.S Mint has released special edition Abe Lincoln pennies to commemorate the former President’s 200th birthday. The collector Lincoln pennies can be bought in rolls of two for $8.95.
The release of the Lincoln pennies just reminds the rest of us how unimportant the penny really is in most circumstances. Nobody really keeps a penny, and that would be the reason why there are so many lucky people around these days. (See a penny, pick it up... You know the rest.)
The Lincoln pennies are elegant and have sentimental value, but if those are the only perks, why not make a 200th birthday $200 bill? That would be both elegant and sentimental.
