<p>[QUOTE=&quot;softmentor, post: 2246609, member: 10469&quot;]Coins that are called NIFC, or &quot;not intended for circulation,&quot; are coins that are legal tender. They are &quot;regular&quot; dollars, half dollars, quarters, dimes, nickles and cents that are only issued in proof sets, mint sets, and other special sales from the mint, however there were none distributed for common circulation. They are coins that can still be spent as any other of the same denomination. </p><p>Red Book uses a similar phrase &quot;not issued for circulation&quot; in their list. For instance, if you look up JKF half dollars, you will see a footnote for 1987, and then 2002 and forward to date that says this. They are regular half dollars, and can be spent as any 50 cent piece. But there were no business strikes, only uncirculated and proof strikes made.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
