The E-Sylum:  Volume 8, Number 4, January 23, 2005, Article 26

OK, OK, I'LL SAY IT: PENNIES!

My sons have been working to fill Whitman-style coin
folders with U.S. cents, nickels, dimes and quarters. To
restock our supply I stopped at a bank Friday and asked
the teller for "four rolls of nickels and four rolls of cents."
She said, "what?". I repeated my request and she said,
"OK, four rolls of nickels and ... WHAT?" "And ....
four ... rolls ... of ... CENTS..., please," I replied.
"Oh, you mean pennies?" she said. "I never heard anyone
ask for them like that before."
