They are plated, not solid.
And the thin plating on a penny is worth $0.04. The Secret Service is really after people doing it, too. By the time you read this, with our plummeting currency, it may be $0.50.
How does one buy these gold and silver coins from Congress? I would love to get a hold of some.
