<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 849105, member: 15929&quot;]Simple answer.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The Authoritative Reference on Eisenhower Dollars Appendices states that in a letter from Roy C. Cahoon, Asst Director of the Mint for Public Services, to Herbert Hicks, stated that the coins were not produced for circulation because the supply of 1971 and 1972 coins out weighed the public demand for the coins.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This letter was a follow up response to a query by Mr. Hicks regarding 400,000 1973 coins being melted by the US Mint. From this, I would assume that approximately 400,000 1973 coins (both P &amp; D) were melted.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
