<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1513543, member: 15199&quot;]The availability of coin variety is what techies would call &quot;source-sink&quot;. The mints and Federal reserve are the sources, the local banks are the sinks. If you live in an rural area where people return coins they receive back into the bank, the bank has no reason to order more. You are living in a full sink land. I live in a border region, and many&nbsp; work/live on different sides of the border ( that is why the wait is often 2-3 hrs to cross at certain hours) so coins go in both directions. My bank has a good influx of new coins ( all &quot;D&quot; mint) as their business customers need them. Likewise the money changers on the border has a good supply of foreign coins, &quot;mostly Canadian and Mexican&quot;. </p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
