What benefits did the cotton gin have?

I have been researching lately, and I am sure it wasn't Eli Whitney. He applied for a 14 year patent and got it. He proposed that for someone to use it, they had to pay 2/5 of their profit in cotton. The farmers were angry at the tax, so they created their own version claiming it was a "new" invention. Eli tried to sue them but couldn't because of a loop-hole in the 1793 patent act. So, i think the farmers benefited the most. For more information go to http://www.archives.gov/education/lessons/cotton-gin-patent/ Hope this answers your question.

What penny is worth half a million dollars?

None of them, but some come close. The most valuable U.S. cents were part of the first two series struck in 1793. As of 09/2009 Numismedia shows the following retail values for different varieties in the best possible condition. Of course it's quite possible that these prices will increase over the next few years and reach that magic million. > A variety of the 1793 "chain" design cent with the word AMERICA abbreviated as "AMERI." is quoted at $412,000 > A second variety of the chain cent with AMERICA fully spelled out: $562,000 > Later in 1793 the reverse design was changed to a wreath. One variety has a vine worked into the wreath and is quoted at $625,000.
