Would It Be A Sin To Return Old Coins To Circulation?

I think I'll do the same with my circulated Euro CC duplicates. I traded some for some harder to get circulated examples, but now I'm almost done with the set, so there's no point in keeping doubles.

Thanks everybody for your feedback, I can tell right away that this is a friendly forum. :-)

I appreciate the negative comments about accumulating them and then putting them in rolls and selling as "unsearched". I see a lot of penny rolls on ebay that show a 1909 s at the end and they say "unsearched, could be 1909 S VDB!". And I'm thinking, who on earth would take a penny roll showing a 1909 S and NOT open it to see if it's a VDB before throwing it on ebay? You'd have to be both crazy and stupid. I mean has anybody ever bought one of those and actually found a VDB?

My only reservation about spending my indian head extras is the thought of some of them ending up in the trash. For some reason I've always personified coins, once when I was about seven I accidentally dropped a random penny (not a collectible one just a penny) in the large trash can outside our house and it drove me crazy, I searched for it for a long time and couldn't find it and it haunted me forever thinking of that poor little penny all alone in some landfill never being able to fulfill its purpose - poor little coin... :-(. 45 years later I remember like it was yesterday... So the thought of some lonely helpless little indian head pennies finding the same fate is a psychological hurdle I have to get past ...

I like to leave some of my inexpensive duplicates (usually foreign) in the penny jar at the check out counter. I don't know where they go, but they don't stay there very long.
