Is the penny not legal tender anymore now that they aren't minting them?

[–] JandroDelSol@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

It's still legal tender, they're just not making them anymore

Pennies are too easy to separate out.

But if you like, throw in $2 worth of pennies. And a few $2 bills. I'm still not sure they are real 😂

[–] JandroDelSol@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)
