<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tamaracian, post: 2053425, member: 23122&quot;]For some of the reasons previously mentioned, and as <i>Mouse</i> alluded to, because the mint is losing money on cents and nickels (seigniorage) they are looking at cheaper metal alternatives; if there is a change, it would probably stimulate another round of collecting both the old and new compositions.&nbsp; Also, periodically a member of Congress will try to propose legislation to change an existing design (e.g. Roosevelt Dime, that has had the same Design Elements since 1946), and if that happens, a new type coin would emerge.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
