Summary created with AI assistance · Source: cnn.com
  • The final American penny was minted on November 12, 2025, at the U.S. Mint in Philadelphia.

  • Production ceased because the coin costs nearly four cents to make, exceeding its face value.

  • Retailers face difficulties adjusting prices, often rounding them to the nearest nickel after the penny's phase-out.

  • Despite stopping production, the penny remains legal tender across the United States.
  • The penny has had a wonderful life. But it’s probably time for it to go away.
    — Joe Ditler, a 74-year-old writer and historian from Colorado, reflects on the memories associated with the penny.
