…thirty-one pennies dated 1896




It’s strange what one chooses to collect when young. Strange too that seventy years after first being minted, these pennies were still in general circulation.
 
But it is therefore not surprising that all are pretty worn, and even the best of them shows little detail.


What are they worth today? Virtually nothing. Why did I not spend them on sweets?
