Current estimates by the U.S. Mint place the number of pennies in circulation at around

140 billion. Others have estimated as many as 200 billion currently circulating. Since the

first penny was minted in 1787, until present-day, over 300 billion pennies have been minted

in the United States. So that leaves about 100 billion pennies that have been retired by the

Mint, lost down sewer drains, stored in jars, smashed by trains, or collected by numismatists

in the past 200 years. Now that we have reached the limits of what actually exists, let's move beyond, and into

the Trillions .
