<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 4024944, member: 68&quot;]Before 1972 the mint and FED just shoved coins into warehouses and removed them when some were needed.&nbsp; It wasn&#039;t in the least unusual for pallets of very old BU coins to come rolling out.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>But then in 1972 they began rotating out the oldest coins in stock first.&nbsp;&nbsp; This means most coins are released within a year and a half of production but some warehouses are overfilled and it can take as loong three years for coins to cycle all the way through.&nbsp; Of course new coins tend to flow to the emptiest warehouses so many coins are issued almost immediately.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
