<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jdiekmann, post: 700758, member: 20536&quot;]Hello - I am a recent member to the CoinTalk community.&nbsp; I am wondering why the mintages of the varieties of certain popular U.S. coins seem to be unknown, even as published in the Red Book.&nbsp; The coins in question are:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What is the breakdown among the 1960 and 1960D large and small date Lincoln Memorial cents?&nbsp; The Red Book just shows combined mintages.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What is the breakdown among the seven varieties of copper and zinc, large and small date, 1982 and 1982D Lincoln Memorial cents?&nbsp; Again, the Red Book just shows combined mintages.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Is there a mintage figure for the 1945 Micro S Winged Liberty head dime?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Have final sales numbers ever been published for the Bicentennial series of silver clad quarters, half dollars, and dollars.&nbsp; All I have seen is 11 million uncirculated and 4 million proofs were minted, but the number available is actually smaller as unsold pieces were melted down.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I realize that the Mint may have not kept track of, or published, this information.&nbsp; If that is the case, are there any reasonable estimates of the mintages of these varieties?&nbsp; Does anyone know if the mintages have been estimated or published?&nbsp; I wonder if Q. David Bowers has ever had this question posed to him - he seems like the most knowledgeable person in numismatics today.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks in advance to anyone who can come up with the answers.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Jerry Diekmann&nbsp;&nbsp; <span style="color: Red">edited</span>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
