Out of respect for @Rdp77 I won’t further the trolling.

With all the talk of the “penny” no longer being minted I find it ironic that the US has never actually minted a penny. The first coin minted in the US was the “flowing hair” cent in 1787 that was designed by Benjamin Franklin. It was called a cent to separate it from the British penny. The first coin issued by the US government was the Fugio cent in 1797. Also a cent. Now even the US mint is referring to them as “pennies”. The US has never made a penny.

Thanks for sharing your two cents er.... um cent and pennie. That's actually pretty neat.

100 years ago they were teaching Latin and Greek in high school, now they are teaching remedial English in college.
