Forty years ago I was complaining about how little one-cent coins were worth, comparing them to pocket lint, and wanting the country to get rid of them.
Around 1968, my sister and I both bought two Hershey Kisses for a penny. Today a package of 112 Hershey Kisses costs $7.44. That's slightly less than inflation, but not sure what they would cost in small quantities.
The American 1-cent coin is not technically a penny, except through popular usage. We should just rename it to a penny.
