Are Americans Abolishing the US Cent on Their Own?
Have Americans turned against cent?
Posted on October 11, 2012 by Dave Harper
Is the U.S. public taking the process of abolishing the cent into its own hands?
That might seem to be a funny question to ask as the U.S. Mint announces that it has struck almost 4.8 billion cents in the first nine months of the calendar year 2012.
That’s a lot of cents.
But is it?
Demand for the cent is but a pale shadow of what it once was.
The culminating year of high cent demand from the 1990s economic boom was the year 2000 when 14.3 billion cents were struck.
Even if the average monthly production of 530 million cents continues until the end of the year, the annual production would reach a figure of 6.4 billion coins.
That is a 55 percent drop from the 2000 production level.
We all know Congress has been nibbling along the edges for years about the fate of the cent. It will do so again next year when it has a new Mint report in its hands relating to the coin’s future and potential compositions. Read story>>
