    9 pents or 9/10 of a cent.

    the pent was retired when inflation made them worthless.

    that’s odd, same thing happened to the penny this year…

      Fractional cent coins were retired long before gasoline was a thing. This is just a way to trick people into thinking it’s less expensive.
