<p>[QUOTE=&quot;superc, post: 1724163, member: 44079&quot;]In 64 I liked the Kennedy Half.&nbsp; The banks simply stopped supplying them where I lived after 66.&nbsp; I went from 67 to 2003 without getting any as change in banks or elsewhere.&nbsp; The &#039;hoarding&#039; in that era was done way above the level of the common consumer.&nbsp; When I worked for Brinks in the early 70s I saw tons of them in bags and boxes stored in the vaults of 1st National City Bank, Chase Manhattan (there was a heck of lot of it (and other stuff) in the WTC Chase vault, I know because I helped carry a lot of it into them)), Bank Hopolim, and 100 other major banks we brought bags and boxes to for storage in their deep vaults.&nbsp; Those were the real hoarders (and probably still are).&nbsp; Pass a law requiring any US bank to release into general circulation any coin stored by them for more than 10 years and you would see lots of stuff supposedly hoarded by coin collectors suddenly being put back into circulation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
