Native American dollar is a good topic. How about changing the series of faces of ASE silver?

I have yet 2 C any 2011 coins here on the left coast. With the copper being so expensive, I wonder how much the mint lost on the cents & nickels minted last month? When will they make the coins out of cheaper materials already? This is costing the taxpayers!!! Stop the madness, save what is left of the steel industry & make copper coated steel cents and steel nickels!!!

I always hated that Moy insisted on the mintages being fairly even from both mints. I like when there’s a disparity like in the table above. If anything, it indicates actual coin demand for the half of the country each mint serves. I hope now that he is gone, that old policy ends and the trend possibly indicated in January’s production totals continues throughout the year.
