<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 1148846, member: 11521&quot;]Yesterday I took the public tour of the Denver Mint. One of the interesting tidbits I picked up on this tour was the face value and weight of the coins held by the Kevlar bags used by the Mint to ship coins.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Denomination / Face Value / Total Weight </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>1 Cent / $4,000 / 2606 lbs</p><p>5 Cent / $12,000 / 2627 lbs</p><p>10 Cent / $50,000 / 2502 lbs</p><p>25 Cent / $50,000 / 2508 lbs</p><p>50 Cent / $50,000 / 2473 lbs</p><p>1 Dollar / $140,000 / 2464 lbs</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Note: The Half Dollar is no longer made for circulation. I assume the figures given are for the Kevlar bags when the Half Dollar was struck and shipped out for circulation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
