No, she's ours now. You can have Crowe. :-)

No, but Russell was originally from NZ but always identifies as Aussie. Sam
Neil is also from NZ if I remember rightly???

It will soon cost more than a penny to make a penny--again. Last
time this happened, they started making zinc pennies, since zinc was
cheaper than copper. That was in 1982. And they have already
debased the penny as far as they can, now it's 95% zinc. What is

Gosh ! A penny is 97.5% zinc and 2.5% copper ?

When was that done ?

The price of copper is way up and any penny that is 100% copper should be
held onto...

Okay, the pre-1982 penny is 95% copper and 5% zinc. I find a price of copper
at $1.25 a pound and find a measured weight of the penny at 3.1g.

So the pre-1982 penny has $0.0081 worth of copper in it...and of course a
face value of $0.01 .
