Should the penny be banned? Is it really that much to American history? Or is just of waste of money to even have the penny? People think that the penny is foolish and money wasted on more money. Others think of it as a part of American history. Through my research I have come to the conclusion that the penny should not be ban. If we ban the penny prices will go up, future generations won't know about the unique culture with the penny, and there can be ways to fix the penny so we can keep it. To begin, we need to keep the penny because if we don’t prices will go haywire. There will be price rounding which can not be done fairly (Mancuso). Example of price rounding is that you bought something for $1.58 it would be rounded to $2.
