They’ve put in their two cents: The majority of Americans oppose abolishing the penny according to a Harris Poll released Tuesday. Indeed, 51 percent of us want to keep the little coin, though some have more affection for it than others. Six-out-of-10 conservatives, for instance, want to keep the penny in circulation, as opposed to 49 percent of moderates and 47 percent of liberals.
There’s a gender divide also: 57 percent of women favor the penny coin - along with 44 percent of men.

The only way to get rid of the penny is to round up or down when purchases are made. If the penny is eliminated, the nickel is next.
