Question

What is the cost of produce 25,10, 5 and 1 cent coins to treasury?

Answer 1

A Penny, which consists of 97.5 percent zinc and 2.5 percent copper, cost $0.0126 cents.

A Nickel -- 75 percent copper and the rest nickel -- cost $0.08 cents

A Dime costs $0.04/cents

A Quarter costs $0.10/cents

Only the Penny and Nickel have intrinsic value that exceeds their face value. But if you try to melt it down for metal, you are breaking Federal Law and will find yourself in jail.
