<p>[QUOTE=&quot;hontonai, post: 891679, member: 4703&quot;]All valid comments, but there are several countervailing factors to consider besides just location of the mints:</p><ul> <li>Credit cards, debit cards, and even checks result in a proportionately lower usage of cash than was the case, say, in the mid-19th Century.</li> <li>Inflation over the years has resulted in a smaller percentage of circulating money (measured by face value) being coins as opposed to paper</li> <li>Modern transportation, especially jet travel, result in earlier and wider dispersion of coins from point A to point B</li> <li>Population increase has certainly increased the absolute volume of coins in circulation.</li> </ul><p>But it&#039;s still a whole lot easier to find a &quot;P&quot; quarter in New York than in Arizona, and vice versa for &quot;D&quot; dimes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
