I do believe that 1961 penny is MS-67 grade.

Sorry, although I do have backside photos of these pennies, I don't know how to share multiple photos on Lemmy.

Mods, I do hope this is an acceptable post. Please let me know if not..

And stay in circulation for sixty years evidently. I’d say we got our money’s worth.

Oh I wasn't making a comment on the value. I just think it's funny that it costs more than a penny to make a penny.

I'm no expert coin collector, but I do call myself paying a little attention here and there.

Sure, the pennies might only be worth face value at places right now, they might be worth way more in years to come...
