<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 2324994, member: 66"]Not so easy to do. Since the almost worthless cents and five cent pieces pretty much do a one way trip from the Mint to the Fed to the banks to busiesses to consumers to change jars, it is those two denominations that are always in short supply. So the banks clammer for more from the Fed and the Fed requests more from the mint. The dimes and quarters tend to remain in circuation so the banks have a more steady supply of those.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
