<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bqcoins, post: 522595, member: 5036&quot;]I wouldn&#039;t say it was released, but since it was given to a congressman and then the congressman gave it to a police officer that gives it a traceable provinence.&nbsp; When the mint asked for them back, it was well within reason to assume that the congressman spent, gave away, lost, etc. any of the cents since when they were given out the mint made no strings attached that they would require their return.&nbsp; That is why the treasury hasn&#039;t made a big stink about snapping up aluminum cents, and they probably never will.&nbsp; But there are probably around a dozen floating around out there as that was about the number that were unrecovered by the govt.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
