<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Texas John, post: 1048705, member: 25813&quot;]The Mint itself has researched this phenomenon. It seems the typical cent, once unrolled, is used in two transactions before it disappears into a a jar, can or box with others of its kind. People won&#039;t throw them away, but also won&#039;t take the time to roll them and exchange them at a bank. </p><p><br /></p><p>Coinstar machines have partly addressed this problem, with the company annually returning billions of cents to circulation (for an average of two transactions <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />). This not only relieves the Mint to some extant, it has also produced a mini-renaissance for change searchers, who can now regularly find AU-BU cents going back to the 1960&#039;s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
