  "The Spiro T. Agnew Minus-One-Cent Piece

  This trapezoidal-shaped coin was recently released into
  circulation to alleviate the "penny problem". It is the only
  known coin with a negative value. For example: instead
  of lugging around four pennies, a person would only have
  to carry two coins; a 5-cent piece and a "Spiro".
