onejinx, I have four boxes on order for almost two months now and I talked to six other banks and was told that they can not order a specific year or mint mark. Does anyone know if Brinks sells to the general public? And how much is the handling fee that Brinks charges per box of coins to the bank? If it's like a dollar or so ,i would pay that would you?

I think you missed my point. If every person in the US wnet and got a $50 box from any bank. It would deplete the general supply and the Feds would have to start shipping more of the new cents out.

if everyone did that, it would involve 1.2 trillion cents. I don't think even that many exist.

PS aren't boxes $25?

I see what SuperDave is talking about. The Denver mint has produced only 700,000 Golden Dollars vs 7.2 million for Philly, and 41.5M dimes vs Philly's 78.5M.
Both mints have run 1.7M halves, which is exactly how many they minted all year last year. I suspect they will halt these for the rest of the year, demand for the half being what it is. (grab 'em up now. Go see what a pair of P&D rolls of 2008 Halves are going for right now).
Denver has been running about 5.4M quarters for Jan and Feb. In March, -0- minted. They've been running 21M dimes a month until March, then -0- again.
If this keeps up, this could be some record low mintages for Denver.
