I dug these today and couldnt help but say we have really regressed in quality. From left to right 1907 Indian, 1960's (center), 2000 and newer (right). Why not just make them Aluminum at least the'll outlast a metal can. You guy's hoarding those jars of copper may just end up making the Forb's list someday.

Hell, the country is losng money making them out of the Garbage they make them out of now.

IMO it seems they like to make "Disposable" Money
