Time to restart my coin collection?

You can be assured with this happening the U.S dollar is going to collapse fast and hard, still can't say when but the time to wait has shortened considerably now, the federal reserve are getting rid of the last obstacles in the way of them printing as much as they want.

Yeah, even cheap coins like the dime and nickel cause them problems because they can't be mass produced easily enough for the speed they're looking for as the article says it's much cheaper to just print lots of paper than mint coins.

LOL how did you find that? Oh well, I'm sure the government will do something else that will speed up the inevitable dollar crash, just need to wait and see what happens with the negotiations.

You need more proof than that.

Just because someone says "fake" doesn't make it fake. Inflation is real and alive today.

Yep, have to be careful about believing the stuff you read on the internet.

I thought they phased out the penny in 1982, and everything else except the nickel in 1965. 

The nickel is the only real coin remaining!

I thought it was 1984 for pennies.

The US should kill off the penny...manufacturing one cost more than its value.

[farlack]

Everything will just be rounded up, or down, and seeing as most things are like 4.99+ tax $5.06 rounded up, the government will probably just keep the other 4 cents as taxes, and push a little bit into the products that land at $4.94 they would make a nice profit id imagine.

It's hard to imagine these coins being phased out, even though their cost of circulation and creation outweighs their value.  Maybe soon we will move to a complete digital monetary system and there will be no need for any of them.

[bitCooper]

It's pretty simple. The government has printed so much money that the penny is worthless.

I for one would love to see the US eliminate the penny and one dollar bill in favor of dollar coins.

Good job buddy!

I'm thinking I might get a few stacks too.

Just imagine the same nickel (composition) could buy a candy or ice cream in 1946 through the 1950's (i'm estimating based on searching around the internet).

With that in mind I'm curious to know if Nickels are undervalued in terms of its intrinsic content.

I'm thinking of just getting the 75% copper and 25% nickel Nickels.

You don't have to sort them and they appear to be the same nickels for the last 70 or 80 years, perhaps more.
