IIs,OOO,OOO CoPPERs OUTsTAND-
ING.

In February, 1857, forty-two years
ago the coinage Of what are now
known as old fashioned, or cartwheel
copper pennies was suspended, Con-
gress in 1892 authorized the coinage
Ito an unlimited amount) Of copper
pennies, weighing originally 264
grains, and ornamented with the fig
ure Of liberty on one side and the
words zone penny" on the other. Tho
year following the weight OF these
pennies was reduced to 208 grains;
three years later the matter of copper
pennies was thought of sufficient i'm
portance to justify a proclamation by
the President Of the Unised States
formally announcing reduction IN
the weight of copper pennies to 1913
grains, 1t had thus been reduced
from 264 to 16S grains, at great con-
venience to the public. Then for
sixty years these coppers we're coined
and every one who has seen one re-
calls the appearance-their large size,
their lusterless surface and great
weight. In 1857 the coinage of these
cumbersome pennies was stopped,
and was superseded by the nickle
penny in use before and after the war
pennies weighing only 70 grains each.
These @nickle" cents were made up Of
SO per cent copper and II of nickel.
The nickel pennies of anti .bellum
and war times were superseded by
the present bronze pennies. There
are OF these in circulation more than
S0O,O00,000 each weighing 4S grains,
made up Of 95 per cent of copper and
) per cent zinc and tin.
What has become of the old copper
pennies? They are not in general
use, they are of no value as raritiea,
they are not easily stored, few have
gone abroad, few are in demand at
home. Where are they? The last
report Of the mint gives the following
figures:
Copper cents coined. .156, 288, 744
Remelted. ................ 37,883693
Outstanding ,405, 05l
1t Is known that during the period
OF forty years preceding 1882 the
Bank OF England made clear profit
OF 81, 100000 from outstanding paper
money not presented TOR payment.
In Like manner many millions OF dol
lars Of Government currency, bonds
and greenbacks have been lost, burn
ed or destroyed, mislaid, sent abroad
or otherwise disposed Of and have
never been presented at the treasury
department for payment, and obliber.
ated from circulation. An old fash.
Toned American penny, however, is
practically indestructible. One hun
dred and eighteen millions of them
not in use would go long way even
in nation Of 75,OOO,COO people, and
why none OF these one hundred and
eighteen million coppers are not paid
to the Government or returned to it
for other money no one knows or
