<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bobbeth87, post: 735924, member: 18369&quot;]For the devil&#039;s avocate viewpoint:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Interestingly, we know that 2009 have lower than normal mintages of dimes and nickels and quarters (compared to the state program).&nbsp; The economy has resulted in many people turning in their coins to their banks and to coinstar overflowing the Fed with coinage.&nbsp; In fact, we have yet to see any 09D nickels or dimes.&nbsp; Why, because of all the coins being turned in.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So, with a month and a half to go in the year, they haven&#039;t released the D dimes and nickels.....what does that say about the 2010 mintages?&nbsp; Will they be lower?&nbsp; If they don&#039;t change George (strongly believe they won&#039;t) from the quarter, the interest in the Nat&#039;l parks will wane and the mintages will go way down due to the lessened demand from both collectors and from the economic reasons of the coin return.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>One could argue, that in the long run then, the Nat&#039;l Park quarters may be a better investment, and the 10 dimes and nickels may have lower mintages than 09....</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Or, maybe I&#039;m completely wrong.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
