<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clawcoins, post: 2605281, member: 77814&quot;]Don&#039;t forget to include in your calculation how the US Gov&#039;t removes old money from circulation, how Brinks may (etc, in another thread) remove silver coinage from recirculating.&nbsp; </p><p>Vending machines helped pushed standard coinage in circulation (ie, remove the old stuff), and your CoinStar machines removing money into the junk bin.</p><p><br /></p><p>There&#039;s nothing that prevents, nor prevented the mint from creating coinage the size of IHC other than they were still basing valuation on PMs.&nbsp; They *could* still make IHC .. could, but they don&#039;t.</p><p><br /></p><p>These &quot;laws&quot; also tend to exclude manufacturing costs.</p><p>If you make something and sell it for less than your manufacturing costs ... well, you won&#039;t be doing so good financially. This is why the Shilling reduced PMs in the first place thus causing the PM based valuation differentiation.</p><p><br /></p><p>You *should* be able to use a ASE as ONE Dollar.&nbsp; It states it right on the coin.&nbsp; You Can take it to the bank and received One Dollar for it.</p><p>Recall the threads of convenience stores getting old coinage used for face value.&nbsp; It still have face value to some people.</p><p><br /></p><p>And then you have the collectors of coinage, which the &quot;law&quot; actually also may ellude to, which is more of a modern past time.&nbsp; Think of all the penny collectors out there .. then maybe, possibly correlate some of it to old pennies being reduced in circulation.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does that &quot;law&quot; include these modern situations.&nbsp; </p><p>Or is it a tad outdated ?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
