Could someone help me out?
The Thing at the top of the page says that it is ILLEGAL to do this to a US penny... but i was under the impression that you can do anything with your money because it is just that... YOUR money. Once you have it, you can do whatever the hell you want with it... I thought (this may be from a History Channel program about money), that once its yours you can write on it, burn it, rip it, whatever because it's your fault that you just lost x-amount of money for doing that.

Pennies made before 1983 are 95% copper. The amount of copper in these pennies is actually worth 2.2 cents!
