Find the central idea Being a clown isn't all fun and games. Rodeo clowns expose themselves to great danger every time they perform.

What is the central idea here A penny for your thoughts? If it's a 1943 copper penny, it could be worth as much as fifty thousand dollars. In 1943, most pennies were made out of steel since copper was needed for World War II, so the 1943 copper penny is ultra-rare. Another rarity is the 1955 double die penny. These pennies were mistakenly double stamped, so they have overlapping dates and letters. If it's uncirculated, it'd easily fetch $25,000 at an auction. Now that's a pretty penny.

Some pennies are rare and worth a lot of money.

The 1943 penny is worth 50 thousand dollars.

the 1943 penny is more rare than the 1955 penny.
