It already was, a long time ago with the copper pennies. Not sure with the modern Zinc ones, however.

- hilbert42 11mo agoThe Imperial Oz penny and halfpenny (currency before 14 February 1966) was always solid copper. Earlier 2/- (two shillings) used to contain silver but that was phased out sometime in the 1950s. If I recall correctly the first (the round) 50c also contained some silver whereas the current dodecagon one is mostly nickel (correct me if I'm wrong).
