Report Copyright Violation | Nickles and pennies to be taken out of circulation Jan 2013 Bid Farewell To Pennies And Nickels! wealthwire.com NOVEMBER 26, 2012 The U.S. is following Canada's footsteps regarding the production of pennies and nickels. According to U.S. Treasury Secretary Tim Giethner, our U.S. Mint intends to remove the penny and nickel coins from circulation beginning early in January 2013. The Mint currently spends about 4.8 cents per penny due to the rising costs of zinc and copper. A nickel valued at five cents now costs approximately 16.2 cents to make due to inflated nickel prices.
