ASK's EVENTOLOGICAL DAY for Tueday, February 12, 2013 - the 204th Birthday of our beloved 16th American President Abe Lincoln is called:
LOST PENNY DAY 1994.
"Why?" you ask.
Because back in the early 1990s, it was easier to ask for PENNIES - Copper as they are - than for Fins - or $5 Bills - that also noted and pictorialized that Great Man and Humanitarian, HONEST ABE - my Favorite President.
Wasn't I the one - after all - who climbed up on his statue and 'held his hand' when I was 6 years old? The folks and I drove to Springfield, IL where alot of Lincolnabilia is found and I took the initiative. Have loved that President ever since - like so many billions of people have since he was assassinated.
Here's one of my older/vintage Blogs written about the Holidate.

of which Lost Penny Day is only one of over 1900 Holidates to celebrate - all being created on or after: Wed. July 25, 1990 at 9:45 PM CST.
After all, those Pennies do mount up and a Penny saved is a Penny earned...
After all, WWAD: What Would Abe Do?
That would be interesting to know...
