Yea, pennies would have to be pre-1982. Maybe we could use cut-up water pipe?

"Yea, pennies would have to be pre-1982. Maybe we could use cut-up water pipe?"

I just sold 129 pounds of scrap copper water pipe for $3.50 per pound. I turned right around and changed those green backs into nickels.

When copper was at $4.40 a pound on the spot market, I calculated that it was worth about 36 cents a Troy ounce.
