<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Stevearino, post: 2668974, member: 74571&quot;]A recent post on CoinForum gave the current cost to produce US coins.&nbsp; While down slightly from 2014, the cost of production and distribution is still more than face value for the cent and five-cent pieces.&nbsp; I&#039;m very in touch with Norwegian coinage and over the past 45 years; they have done away with six lower-value denominations.&nbsp; Without trying to start a political conversation (not allowed, of course) the question is likely to be discussed by government officials under the new administration whether it would help the national debt to get rid of, at least, cent and five-cent coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>What do you think the long-term effect would be on Lincoln Memorial cents and Jefferson five-cent pieces (thinking of higher grade coins only)?</p><p>Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
