[QUOTE="dropkickacid, post: 603961, member: 17870"]Lately I've been interested in pre-75 Jeffs because I love the way they look. I like the fact that they aren't as perfect and uniform as coins are today, so I always keep an eye out for them. Here's my question though: Why the heck are there so many 1964-D Jeffs?! The 2009 RB lists mintage at 1,787,297,160. It's the highest mintage (disregarding the sum of all mints for a particular year) since the Jeff was introduced, and the only year that comes even CLOSE is the 2000-D with 1,509,520,000. What's the story? Was there a historical event taking place at the time? Were there a bunch of trainees and they trained 'em with 1964-D Jeffs? Maybe the Mint did it on purpose knowing that some smart-aleck like me would notice it one day and post it on a forum for all to see...sneaky, sneaky Mints...:D[/QUOTE]
