Penny fact #4

Fun fact #4: Prior to being made of ammunition shells in 1944, in 1943 at the Peak of WWII, pennies were made of zinc coated steel due to the high demand of copper for making bullet shells. 

Have a great weekend, and look for my post on Koins for Kenya on Monday that explains a little about the organization a portion of my proceeds will go to benefit.
