Scandinavian Poster
A large poster, showing the Scandinavian boys, on thick Gloss Art 170gsm paper.
Worthless
Don't show that stuff in Denmark's face if it can't get him drunk!!
We had loads of fun with the English pennies while I was in England. [link]
And a new font because I've long been wanting to use one that mix better with the drawings.

Pennies are that worthless, you can't buy anything for a hand full of pennies. But, they do make gid projectile weapons in a class room

Pennies in a wallet make you think you have more money than you actually have, because they're heavy
.
To be honest not even a handful of pound coins can get you drunk. :p

@Kanada it is funny because 2 and a half months after you posted your comment, Canada announced it is scrapping the penny.

I've always wanted to get my hands on the full set to make an escutcheon.

Interesting thing about the disregard for pennies...I'm all the way down in Arizona, USA and I occasionally still find Canadian pennies mixed up in my change. Same with Mexican and American dimes. So long as MOST of the change is for the correct country, nobody seems to notice the occasional slip...unless you're using a CoinStar machine.

The whole escutcheon thing is pretty new really. Previously the "tails" side of the penny was a portcullis and mantling.

@Mirai Fun fact #1: There are no "American pennies". The USA has never minted a penny. We have cents, and calling them pennies is a holdover from our colonial period. Fun fact #2: The copper in the American CENTS since 1982 is only a thin coating over a mostly zinc coin. The zinc -and- copper metal is not worth more that 1 cent, but the cost of the metal plus minting it is greater than one cent. Fun fact #3: The value of the metal in a pre-1982 cent (brass, 95% copper +5% zinc) is worth more than 1 cent. By wild coincidence, I came across a 1960's cent in my change a few months ago, along with a silver quarter, now worth several dollars for its metal. My guess is that someone discovered a jar of old change in their attic, didn't realize its actual value and spent it at face value; and I happened to get change out of the cash register shortly afterwards.

Uidai, we here in Finland have a saying that stems from the Soviet era.
"One Finn equals ten Russkies"
Comes from the ages of Winter War or so...

@Mirai Lol, I remember reading that... I'm American as well. It's pretty sad that it costs more to make a penny than it's worth...

The last panel is so funny! They have the opposite flags and they are exactly the opposite if each other!
