[QUOTE="hotwheelsearl, post: 6577471, member: 75143"]If we think about United States coins, right now, we see a [I]very [/I]long lifespan. In theory, US coins from 1792 are still acceptable as legal tender, so that's almost 250 years of acceptable coinage. Also like Rome, US coins circulate all over the world as well, though not to the same extent.

However, at least in this country, you can still get face value for pretty much coin every minted under the auspices of the United States Treasury.[/QUOTE]
