"In 2016, the U.S. Mint produced 16 trillion coins, valued at over $1.09 billion"

Maybe they put the errors in for fun. They said the copper penny fluctuated in copper content, should say 44-82 not 44-62. They also say all coinage has a mintmark, except they don't mention the penny (again), guess the penny not that important.

According to the site above it is estimated that Americans throw away $62 million a year. That's only about 20 cents per person per year or a penny per person every 2 1/2 weeks. I think the amount should be much higher than that.
Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).

NOTE: ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- often
substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) and selling short as well.
