<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1777290, member: 26302&quot;]Please do not deal in absolutes, since they are almost never true. To prove that, I received a BU 1959d in change a few weeks ago. The portrait seemed unusual, (high relief), so I looked at the date.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Its a 54 year old coin man. Most coins do not stay in circulation that long. We have hoard information from the time before coin collecting was popular proving most coins stayed in circulation for 30 years or so. Any coin over 50 years old is VERY SCARCE in any hoard. Same is happening here. No one pulled them from circulation since they were not wheat cents, but its simply a pretty dang old coin, and most are in people&#039;s piggy banks and junk drawers nowadays.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>That&#039;s all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
