A question about pennies.
Apr. 18th, 2014 05:03 pmHas any country ever minted a coin with less value than the American 1 cent coin? In 1913, the buying power of the American penny was about that of the current American quarter. In 1960, when the British finally got rid of the farthing, its buying power was about that of the current American dime.
Has any country other than the United States ever continued to mint such a valueless coin?
