Is there really another a coin shortage

just because I hate being left out.

(When I was a small child, my mother had a portable manual typewriter with a two-color ribbon; you could type in red or black. I thought it was the best thing EVER.)

Did you tell the truth again?

 

And then white out! It is still evolving... now we have smiley's

 

Oh, we did then, too. Long before, in fact.

 

Yea but they looked like this : )

 

As far as I can remember I didn’t make a political statement. I asked but did not receive an answer as to why.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHA the old ones are the best

 

Didn’t know that. Thanks

 

Yea Doug probably said the same thing when currency changed over from beads and shells. He might be old but he still remembers.

 

That was a mistake from awhile ago not all are it's both clad strikes and silver strikes.

 

I saw the coin shortage sign at chase today. I told the teller I had a 5 gallon bucket of change, filled 4/5, and it will help her with the shortage. She said they don't accept that amount of change. HAHA!!

 

If they did accept those 5 gallon change jar submissions, how do you think they'd justify their fabricated coin shortage?

Oh, welcome to CT.

 

Thank you!

 

Another made up story and welcome to CT.

 

What kind of quarters are in the 1975 and 1976 proof sets. Are those silver also. I’m lost

 

The "coin shortage" bullcrap is still continuing.

clearly, it's untrue, but these businesses don't want to have to get coins shipped in. It's greed more than true shortages. trust me... there is no shortage of coins... we are printing bills and minting coins at absurd rates.

Well, too bad. Any business that won't take my cash or try to short me is one which does not desire to have my continued business.

 

Doesn't matter how many the Mint issues, if every time people "get change" they just take it home and dump it in a jar.

I see customers getting change all the time, but almost never spending change -- and when they do, the folks behind them are usually scowling at the delay.

Yeah, a lot of businesses will jump at an excuse to avoid the extra costs and security risks of handling cash. But the coin shortage is real, in that the coins aren't where they're needed.
