[QUOTE="ewomack, post: 26279107, member: 15588"]I have seen a number of 2025 coins in the wild. And I [I]never[/I] use cash or coins these days, so, if [I]I've[/I] seen them, they must exist in decent enough numbers. I do understand the urge to keep some "just in case." It makes sense given everything going on right now. It won't cost you much to do so. Take a few rolls and put them in the closet. No harm done. If nothing happens and they end up remaining pocket change, they should (hopefully) still have value in the future, minus some inflationary impact. Then spend them (I ended up doing this with most of the State Quarters I put away from circulation years ago). [I]Knowing what we know now[/I] (key point), the likelihood of 2025 coinage having any extra value looks slim. The mintage numbers above don't suggest any potential excessive rarity. As others have already said, rumors of shortages frequently inspire hoarding, which has the opposite effect of rarity in the long term. The 1963 Barr notes still provide a great example of this phenomenon. So keep some if you want to. It won't hurt anyone, but I wouldn't expect any future windfalls, again, [I]knowing what we know now[/I].[/QUOTE]
