<p>[QUOTE=&quot;National dealer, post: 17239, member: 487&quot;]Jim,</p><p><br /></p><p>The Mint has always worked on a schedule that makes no sense to anyone outside of the mint. Many coins over the years were released with dates that didn&#039;t corrospond with the year it was. Because the main purpose of the Mint is to supply commerce, coins are minted everyday of the year, and released when needed. Some are released the following year, and some have even managed to languish in Fed banks for 80 years before being released to circulation. Some dates were minted years after that particular date in which the coin bears, and a few have even been released in years prior to that on the coin. There really isn&#039;t a rhime or reason for this other than the needs of commerce. While I understand that this answer doesn&#039;t help much, it is the only way that it can be explained.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
