	Maine Penny
		The Maine penny is a Norwegian silver penny that dates to the reign of Olaf Kyrre.
		In some accounts it is described that when the penny was found it had a perforation that might indicate it was used as a pendant.
		Since it was found at a coastal site, the penny could be explained as evidence that Vikings did indeed travel further south and that the coin might have been lost or traded locally.

		A penny spent may be more than a penny saved, if a tax relief plan proposed by Senator Dana Dow (R-Waldoboro) makes its way upstream to the floor of the State Senate.
		In addition to stabilizing the tax base and lightening the property tax burden, Dow also proposes to increase revenue by expanding the tax to amusements and more “touristy” elements of the economy, money that would be earmarked to pay off the state’s hospital settlement.
		Lowering the income tax over a ten year period is another key feature of Dow’s proposal, a proposal he says would make Maine a more attractive place for companies to relocate, since their employees would not want to move to a place where they would take home a smaller net paycheck.
