My solution is to change the word on a ‘one cent’ coin to ‘two cents’ in 2027 and make the ‘one cent’ coins in circulation worth ‘two cents’ from January 1 2027.
In the interim, banks would pay $1.50 per 100 ‘one cent’ coins returned to them.
The two cent coin would be exactly the same size and weight. I’d imagine billions of one cent coins will be returned to banks if offered this premium.

As I understand it, there will be a cent minted next year. Possibly it’ll only be in uncirculated and proof sets. 2027 is another matter. After all, there wasn’t a 1982 SBA Dollar in any format.
Regardless, I’ll buy the cents, I’ve been collecting them (cents’ dates) since 1836. I’m still trying to find an 1835 (young head) to extend my collection, currently at 1836 – 2025. It’s a hobby for me.

Rick,
I find what to get fun. I did get the Kennedy matte proof but I doubt it’s a 70. Still glad I have one. Just curious, do you have a 1995 W ASE? I’m thinking you do. The FHG was too rich for me but I’m happy with my FH silver medal.

Rick, it’s an investment. You gotta spend money to make money. Eventually, you’ll be the winner. Really nice FHG and gold Sacagawea coins. Never a regret.

Cali,

He knows that he is annoying and he is doing it for a reason (on purpose). That reason could be an outside agenda other than his own or there is something seriously wrong with him. However, there is a reason for his absurdly strange behavior. Actually, he kinda gives me the creeps.

Gentlemen, with respect to moving forward without a rear view, perhaps having both a forward and backward view at the same time is the better perspective, one looking to the past and one to the future.
