See, we used to have pennies before 1966, when metrics came in for money and later for measurements. Some people never bothered and there's (hopefully) a nice retro glamour about feet and inches, and even shillings and multiples of 12. But since you have dollars and cents I thought you'd never have had pennies, but I'd hear about them now and then.
How much is a penny worth?
