There was a time in the US (maybe 20 years ago) when copper prices were high so they changed copper pennies so the mints changed to copper clad coins with cheaper metals in side. I hope those Pinoys got their pesos’ worth from their meltdown. :D

Folks here where for a while melting down 10 Peso coins to extract the miniscule amount of gold in them, worth 10.5 Pesos. The Philippine government recently put checks in place to prevent this. That’s desperate.

Hm I don’t know if I thought it was exactly pragmatic since I don’t know too many people who are going to need to know how to open their own mine. Nor does it really affect me now that I know about it. I will say that it was educational, though.

That’s very pragmatic of you John, I thought it was quite educational, not “useless” :)
