<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 25480852, member: 66&quot;]Just got my first 2024&#039;s yesterday, a 24 D cent and a 24 D dime.&nbsp; There are some of the 2023&#039;s I haven&#039;t seen yet.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Not a chance,&nbsp; The government has tried several times in the past.&nbsp; In 1942 they appealed to citizen to turn in their cents so they wouldn&#039;t have to strike as many new cents (copper being war critical material).&nbsp; They framed it as a patriotic appeal and you would think with the war feeling running high after the attack on Pearl Harbor it would have been a success.&nbsp; Failed completely.&nbsp; There were appeals for people to turn in their coins during the big coin shortage in the early 60&#039;s.&nbsp; No good because people were hording the coins due to the rising price of silver.&nbsp; There was another big cent shortage in 1974, again appeals were made for people to turn in their cents.&nbsp; Again it failed.&nbsp; Banks were even offering as much as 60 cents a roll for them but it didn&#039;t work.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
