Default Silly question

Is there any reason to hold on to 2010 pennies or should I throw them in with the other re-rolls?

Re-roll and take back to the bank. That will be the style for the next 50 years. WOLF

I was not around in 1909, but probably would have used this same reasoning. Now i wish I had a 1909 penny. Although I doubt todays penny will even be recognizable in 50 years. one of my first md finds was a penny that I thought was a dime. On closer inspection it was a 2009 penny(cabin on the back)that most of the copper coloring had flaked of off.
