[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 11940, member: 112"]That's because most bank employees are not even aware we have a new nickel. Neither is most of the rest of the country. What seems like common information to us collectors is like news from Mars to others. What you folks are complaining about - only able to find coins from one mint - is quite common nationwide. It always has been. It only becomes easier to find coins from all mints several years after the date on the coin. This is because it takes that long for the coins to spread through circulation.
