The Old Ooppers,

This question has been answered
by the Atlanta Constitution as fol-
lows
What becomes Of all the copper
coin /? There are Ioo,ooo,ooo old
copper pennies somewhere. Nobody
knows what has become of them, ex-
cept that once in a while a single
specimen turns up in change. A few
years ago 100000 bronze 2-cent
pieces were set ahoat. Three million
of them are still outstanding. Three
billion 5 cent copper pieces are scat
tered over the United States, but it
is very rarely that one is seen. OF
5000 half cents, which correspond
in value to English farthlngs, not one
has been returned to the government
for coinage or is held by the treasury.
Congress appropriates about 100000
yearly for recoining the silver coins
now in possession of the treasury.
These are mostly half dollars, and are
not circulated because there is no de-
mand for them. Not long ago the
stock Of them amounted to over
$5,ooo.ooo, but it is only about half
that now. The money set aside for
recoining is not intended to pay for
the cost of minting, but it is required
to reimburse the treasury of the Unit
ed States on account of the loss
which silver pieces have suffered by
abrasion. The loss amounts to $50
on every $1,000 and it has to be
made good in order to set the treas
urer's account straight,
