He told me that they were obtained from a jobber (in Philadelphia, of course) who had made them for the US Mint in the 1950's and 60's. Curious that there would be vast quantities of them available for all years. I'm sure there's a way to prove that they were made more recently, but I wouldn't know how to do it.[/QUOTE]
