I'm wondering if the production of pennies is still ongoing in the United States. I've heard rumors that they might have stopped making them, but I'm not sure. Can someone confirm if pennies are still being minted?

This reason is due to the large number of pennies that end up in various locations such as jars on dressers and scattered across coffee tables.

The government, however, has an interest in ensuring that hard currency remains in circulation.
