<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 7851213, member: 66&quot;]That&#039;s what I expected, and what I predict will happen once the US cent ends.&nbsp; Within a year they will effectively be gone form circulation.&nbsp; Doens matter that we make 6 + billion of them a year, within 6 months there will be cent shortages within 9 months everyone will be rounding and within a year they will be gone form circulation.&nbsp; During the shortage period merchants will be clamoring for cent s from their customers and banks, but once they all start rounding they will STOP asking for cents from customers or banks.&nbsp; Once that happens any cents that do get turned in at the banks will at first just sit there because the businesses are no longer asking for them (They don&#039;t need them, they are rounding) and eventually will be shipped back to the Federal Reserve so as to become productive assets on the banks books again and not just taking up space in the vault.&nbsp; Since no banks will be asking for them it will end up as a one way trip from change jars back to the Fed.&nbsp; What the Fed will do with them I have no idea.&nbsp; Send them to the Mint in payment for new coins? If so what does the Mint do with them?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
