How long before the U.S. NICKEL is outlawed? How long before the penny no longer exists?
My prediction, don't expect the 2012 NICKEL to be made of 25% nickel/75% copper, this is the last year to get your hands on something trading at over a 25% discount!
As far as the penny, even though it's made of zinc now, more and more not only is coming out on zinc as a viable metal in health and nutrition, but as inflation continues to escalate, I wouldn't expect the zinc penny to last, my prediction is it'll be gone by 2015. In fact, wouldn't be at all surprised if the penny is outlawed since inflation will get so bad, I can't imagine anything of such size being made of metal and the mint not having to spend more then a penny to make it.
