<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 21593522, member: 112&quot;]There is no single or annual release date, the coins are released at numerous times over the course of the year. And, not all denominations are released at the same time, but at different times over the course of the year.</p><p><br /></p><p>They don&#039;t mint all denominations at the same time either. They start minting one denomination, whichever one they need to mint the most of the soonest, a couple months before Jan. of the upcoming year. Once a given number of those are minted they move on the next denomination, and then the next and so on. Once they run through them all, they start the process all over again.</p><p><br /></p><p>They begin releasing the new year&#039;s coins in Jan. and continue releasing them throughout the year. When the coins are released by the mint in what they call &quot;ballistic bags&quot; weighing a couple tons or more, those bags are sent to various private companies where the coins are broken down into smaller bags and or rolls. Then those smaller bags and rolls are distributed to the Federal Reserve banks, which in turn then release them the individual private banks. The whole process can take quite a while. And it continues on throughout the year. Then it starts all over again the following year.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
