The one cent coin of the United States is the lowest denomination currency of the US dollar. Its symbol is ¢. On the face of the coin stands the portrait of President Abraham Lincoln since 1909, the centenary of his birth. From 1959 to 2008 the Lincoln Memorial on the reverse was highlighted, which was redesigned to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Lincoln, in 2009. Since 2010, we have been reissued with the previous design. The coin is 19.05 millimeters in diameter and 1.52 millimeters thick.
It should not be eliminated because it's a historical coin that has the story of a great president like Lincoln was.

In the study of history as an academic discipline, a primary source (also called an original source) is an artifact, document, diary, manuscript, autobiography, recording, or any other source of information that was created at the time under study. It serves as an original source of information about the topic. Similar definitions can be used in library science, and other areas of scholarship, although different fields have somewhat different definitions. In journalism, a primary source can be a person with direct knowledge of a situation, or a document written by such a person.
This wall painting found in the Roman city of Pompeii is an example of a primary source about people in Pompeii in Roman times. (Portrait of Terentius Neo) Primary sources are distinguished from secondary sources, which cite, comment on, or build upon primary sources. Generally, accounts written after the fact with the benefit (and possible distortions) of hindsight are secondary. A secondary source may also be a primary source depending on how it is used. For example, a memoir would be considered a primary source in research concerning its author or about their friends characterized within it, but the same memoir would be a secondary source if it were used to examine the culture in which its author lived. "Primary" and "secondary" should be understood as relative terms, with sources categorized according to specific historical contexts and what is being studied.

The main reason the colonies were important to the British Empire was for money.
The colonies had a lot of land, more resources, and new animals and plants that Great Britain could use for money. Englishmen would invest their wealth into the colonies and often buy land to raise animals and crops. There were a lot of new resources in the colonies that the colonists could use and even sell overseas. New things were being found that could sell for a lot in other countries, which was making Great Britain even more wealthy.
Great Britain could also tax the colonies, which also was a way to earn money. This made the colonists angry, as they had nobody in the British Parliament to vouch for them, so they ended up boycotting a lot of British products that contained taxes on them. This eventually made Great Britain realize that taxes were not a good idea.
