<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2134476, member: 112&quot;]There really wasn&#039;t any need to collect coins from banks. By the time the law took effect and new coins were issued much of the silver coinage was gone already. Everybody knew what was going to happen well in advance, the law was discussed and bandied about for a long time before it was ever even passed. But yeah, once the new coins were issued the banks were supposed to swap it out for the new coins. And for a few years afterwards the Fed used sorters to separate out any silver coins remaining.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
