How many Lincoln cents did it cost the taxpayers to change an already perfectly good designed penny ?

It’s usually done in the form of contests, with prizes. I’m more disgusted with the $12 million spent to promote the “gold dollars.”

Eggs Ackley! They have no shame! There is no acceptable reason for throwing away tax dollars on stuff like this!
And,,, I like the dollar coins. Paper singles are disgusting, filthy, and have very short lifespans, requiring constant replacement. Ever get some at the bank that smell like a french whorehouse? Darn things have been de-loused and perfumed! Coins last for decades and decades. Much smarter use of my tax money!

How many pennies does it cost to buy the copper to make one penny?
