    While true for the penny at least ($0.03 melt value (for solid copper pennies before 1982)) that’s the lowest value coin we have. What’s a Kopeck worth vs it’s metal value?

      I remember it used to be 1/13 of its metal value, but I can’t Google it up quickly and the ratio has probably changed since then anyway.
