[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 1909266, member: 24633"]Conder, Once again, I was not as explicit as I should have been. My reference to the "mid-20th century" was intended to refer to the availability in the 60's and later. There was another melt of 52 million in 1943 & 1944 for the war effort as well as some 10 million damaged and mutilated coins that were melted from 1945 to the early 60's. According to Leroy Van Allen in the VAM Book, as of 1960, there were 174,314,287 held in the Treasury and 8,376,508 held in Reserve Banks. Chris[/QUOTE]
