    It's been re-posted for many months. They must be getting some response.
    You don't have to design it from scratch?

    It's actually still a penny -- a rather old English penny. I have one, it is huge. A full ounce of copper (I guess that was the value of a penny back then. Copper standard? Dunno.)

    You could sprain something flipping one of these. Maybe break a toe if you're clumsy. OK, it's not that bad.

    There is a two pence coin from the same year that weighs, you guessed it, two ounces. Don't have one of those.

    They must have had specially reinforced pockets back then. :)

    They carried their money in little leather bags with a drawstring, not pockets.

    I don't know if it's because they haven't gotten enough or because they haven't gotten any. I caught it, but I can't draw to their standards, threw it back.
