I'm not sure I get the whole it costs more than a penny to make a penny. So what. A penny lasts for decades and is circulated thousands of times. It's not like the money spent to make the penny just disappears. I'm sure the net value is still there.
You stop producing things when you find a better use of your resoures elsewhere.

The thing is that resources now used up to produce pennies will be freed and could be used more efficiently. Lets say to produce missiles.
