[QUOTE="Michael K, post: 3276493, member: 78298"]I have brought my mutilated coins in the last 2 years, and hope to do the same this year. Go to your bank and ask first, I clean and count them. They will have to count them anyway, but just a courtesy. The program was suspended, but then it was brought back. I had asked a teller at my C.U. if the mint destroys old beat up coins the way the Fed does with worn out bills and he said yes. Then I read some criminals were buying TONS of fake Kennedy halves (for almost nothing) that were already mangled or they mangled them, and then they were turning them in by the thousands to get redeemed. Claiming they were pulled out of cars that were junked/ or shipped overseas or something.
