<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 3216523, member: 66"]They get dumped into change jars all over the country and that is where they are sitting yet because people consider them too low a value to be worth fooling with either to roll or in most cases even to lug to a coinstar machine. So when the jar get full it is just pushed aside and they start a new one. If you work the numbers the number of coins that have to be lost, thrown away, of thrown into a change jar that never gets recycled come to less than 4 coins per household per week to consume the ENTIRE annual production of the Mint each year. Or one coin per person per week. How many of you pull just one coin per week out of circulation? Get a roll of new 2018 cents at the bank and put it away, that's your entire quota of coins from the mint for six months. With it needing such a small number of coins being pulled each week I marvel that were have ANY circulating coins at all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
