US Mint Coin Production Plunges in June Despite Stronger First Half

Monthly Output Falls to 204 Million Coins in June, the Lowest in a Year, Even as First-Half Production Surges Nearly 25% Over 2024

The Mint struck 204.42 million coins for circulation in June

The United States Mint’s coin production dropped sharply in June, ending a steady run of monthly totals that ranged from the upper 500 millions to the upper 600 millions through the first five months of 2025.

The Mint struck 204.42 million coins for circulation in June, down 68.9% from May but 21.5% higher than June 2024. Even so, it was the Mint’s lowest monthly output in the past year.

For the first half of 2025, the Mint has produced more than 3.3 billion coins for circulation — a nearly 25% increase over the same period in 2024, which marked the weakest January–June total since CoinNews began reporting monthly figures in 2011.

Here’s how June’s production compares to previous months over the past year:

June 2024 to June 2025 Circulating Coin Production

Month Mintages* Rank
June 2025 204.42 M 12
May 2025 657.95 M 3
April 2025 577.64 M 7
March 2025 669.02 M 2
February 2025 580.91 M 6
January 2025 633.56 M 4
December 2024 391.70 M 10
November 2024 602.90 M 5
October 2024 826.60 M 1
September 2024 486.00 M 8
August 2024 405.20 M 9
July 2024 235.20 M 11
June 2024 168.22 M 13

*The May total excludes a negative adjustment reflected in the Mint’s May data for 3.22 million Native American dollars — an amount that, based on CoinNews tracking, had inflated monthly totals by 700,000 in February, 1.4 million in March, and 1.12 million in April. Those figures have also been updated.

The U.S. Mint’s primary mission is to manufacture coins in response to public demand. It produces, sells, and delivers circulating coins to Federal Reserve Banks and their coin terminals, ensuring commercial banks and other financial institutions have the necessary supply.

Despite costing the Mint 3.69 cents to produce and distribute each penny, the Federal Reserve consistently orders more of them than any other denomination. In June, the Mint struck 34.4 million Lincoln cents, accounting for 16.8% of all circulating-quality coins produced for the month.

Of note, the future of the one-cent coin is increasingly uncertain. On Feb. 9, President Trump ordered an end to its production, calling the move a step toward reducing "wasteful" government spending. In May, the U.S. Treasury announced it had placed its final order for penny blanks and will phase out production of the one-cent coin once current inventories are exhausted.

Month-Over-Month

In month-over-month comparisons for coins commonly used by Americans, June production declined by:

  • 83.2% Lincoln cents,
  • 62.3% Jefferson nickels,
  • 65.1% Roosevelt dimes, and
  • 59.9% quarters.

The U.S. Mint also produces other coins in circulating quality, including half dollars and dollars. Although Native American $1 coins are no longer ordered by the Federal Reserve, they continue to be produced in circulating quality for collectors. The same was true for Kennedy half dollars until recent years — specifically in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 — when they were also distributed into circulation.

Mintages of Kennedy Halves

In many years, the U.S. Mint strikes both denominations in January to meet the expected demand for the entire year. However, that has not been the case for Kennedy half dollars over the past four years, as the Federal Reserve unexpectedly ordered millions more for circulation — approximately 12 million in 2021, 7 million in 2022, 18 million in 2023, and 52 million in 2024 (fiscal, not calendar years).

It remains unclear whether any 2025 Kennedy half dollars will be released into general circulation. As of January, production totals stood at 3.6 million coins from the Denver Mint and 5.8 million from the Philadelphia Mint. February added another 2 million from Denver, while March contributed 2.4 million more from Philadelphia. With no reported changes in April, May or June, the year-to-date total stands at 13.8 million coins — 5.6 million from Denver and 8.2 million from Philadelphia.

By comparison, 2024 saw significantly higher production, with 21.9 million half dollars struck at Denver and 15.7 million at Philadelphia, for a combined total of 37.6 million coins.

Mintages Adjusted for Native American Dollars

As of June, no additional 2025 Native American dollars were reported struck, and cumulative production remains unchanged at 2.38 million coins — the same total first reported in January.

As a reminder, in May, the U.S. Mint had revised mintage levels downward by 3.22 million coins. Earlier reports had indicated the following monthly increases:

  • January: 1.12 million (Denver) + 1.26 million (Philadelphia) = 2.38 million
  • February: an additional 700,000 (Philadelphia)
  • March: another 1.4 million (700,000 from each facility)
  • April: 1.12 million added (420,000 Denver, 700,000 Philadelphia)

Specifically, later data showed cumulative totals remained unchanged from January, effectively eliminating all reported increases from February through April.

For comparison, the 2024 Native American dollar saw slightly lower production, totaling 2.24 million coins, evenly split between the Denver and Philadelphia Mints.

The U.S. Mint began selling rolls, bags, and boxes of 2025 Native American dollars on Jan. 28, followed by the release of 2025 Kennedy half dollar rolls and bags on May 6.

The following table details 2025 circulating coin mintages in June by production facility and denomination.

U.S. Mint Circulating Coin Production in June 2025

Denver Philadelphia Total
Lincoln Cent 18,800,000 15,600,000 34,400,000
Jefferson Nickel 27,360,000 20,160,000 47,520,000
Roosevelt Dime 28,500,000 28,000,000 56,500,000
Quarters 38,000,000 28,000,000 66,000,000
Kennedy Half-Dollar 0 0 0
Native American $1 Coin 0 0 0
Total 112,660,000 91,760,000 204,420,000

 

In June, the Denver Mint struck 112.66 million coins, while the Philadelphia Mint produced 91.76 million, for a combined monthly total of 204.42 million coins.

Coin Production in First Half of 2025

Through the first half of this year, Denver has struck 1,642,160,000 coins and Philadelphia 1,681,340,000 coins, bringing the combined total to 3,323,500,000 coins — 24.7% more than the 2,666,040,000 coins produced during the same period in 2024.

This next table lists coin production totals by denomination and by U.S. Mint facility:

YTD 2025 Circulating Coin Production by Denomination

1 ¢ 5 ¢ 10 ¢ 25 ¢ 50 ¢ N.A. $1 Total:
Denver 644.8M 233.04M 419M 338.6M 5.6M 1.12M 1642.16M
Philadelphia 655.2M 266.88M 325M 424.8M 8.2M 1.26M 1681.34M
Total 1300M 499.92M 744M 763.4M 13.8M 2.38M 3323.5M

 

If the current production pace continues through December, the 2025 annual mintage would top 6.6 billion coins. For comparison, the U.S. Mint produced just over 5.6 billion coins for circulation in 2024, marking the lowest output since 2009.

2025 Quarter Mintages

In addition to the 2025 Native American dollar with its one-year-only design, the U.S. Mint through June has also released the first three of five issues for 2025 from its four-year American Women Quarters™ Program. These coins are the 16th through 18th overall in the series, each featuring a unique reverse design.

The 2025 Ida B. Wells quarter, the first of the year, entered circulation in February, with the Mint offering rolls and bags of the coin to the public beginning Feb. 4. Mintage totals were unchanged in April but increased sharply in May, with an additional 43.7 million coins from Denver and 59.85 million from Philadelphia. With no changes reported since, the coin’s combined mintage now stands at 309.4 million — 143.2 million from Denver and 166.2 million from Philadelphia.

The second quarter design of the year, honoring Juliette Gordon Low, entered circulation in March. Rolls and bags went on sale March 25. Production to date has reached 130.2 million from Denver and 200.4 million from Philadelphia — the latter following a 3.8 million increase in May — for a combined total of 330.6 million.

Production of the third 2025 design, featuring Dr. Vera Rubin, began in April. The coin entered circulation on June 2, with rolls and bags of them offered on June 3. Only 2.2 million coins were struck in Philadelphia during April. In May, output climbed to 25 million from Denver and 27.8 million from Philadelphia, for a combined total of 52.8 million. June production rose further to 63 million coins from Denver and 55.8 million from Philadelphia, bringing the cumulative total to 118.8 million.

Minting started in May for the fourth 2025 design featuring Stacey Park Milbern, scheduled for release in mid-August. Unchanged since, the totals show 2.2 million coins from the Denver Mint and 2.4 million from the Philadelphia Mint, for a combined 4.6 million.

In June, the Mint began striking the final 2025 quarter design honoring Althea Gibson, with 2.4 million coins produced in Philadelphia. The quarter is not expected to begin circulating until this fall. Notably, the 2.4 million total is not included in the Mint’s overall coin production report but appears in its separate report on quarter production.

This final table shows all American Women quarter dollar mintages by production facility, denomination, and design.

All Lincoln Shield Cents intended for circulation have had a typical mintage of 5-7 Billion coins per year (P&Ds combined). For the year 2025, Year to Date, the combined P&D mintage for the Lincoln Shield Cent has reached 1.3 Billion coins. Although the year is not up yet, this is a record low for the Lincoln Shield Cent. Some posters here have expressed the following concerns regarding the collectability of the 2025 Lincoln Shield Cent: 1 – a lack of availability of rolls at local banks, 2 – the absence of 2025 pennies in transactional change, and 3 – water… Read more »

E1
certainly a great design – much better than the other junk lately.
I got my set yesterday. The cent is really nice, but not proof-like as the Kennedy is. Quarter reverses just too cluttered. Sweet nickel – almost bowl look. Sac – meh.
The only cent I got from circulation is nearly as nice as the uncirculated – no spotting!

E 1

DaveSWFL,

I received 5 UNC Sets from the Mint yesterday. I have already given two away to family members. I like to keep them sealed in the brown cardboard box. But now I’m tempted to open one to get a look at the nickel. Does the nickel look like a high relief? I also ordered 8 P&D Lincoln Shield Cent Mint Set pairs and 5 Kennedy Half Mint Set pairs on eBay yesterday. I will continue to look for more Kennedy halves this week. I’ll have pics later this week.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/167660833280

DaveSWFL

Definitely not high reliefs. Major disappointment on the D nickel – with a 10x loop I see a scratch from aboveJefferson’s eye all the way to the bottom of his chin.
Also, apologies if I misled anyone as the dish like appearance is on the Kennedys obverse. It was several hours later after I’d put the sets away that I posted. I will be more careful in the future.

E 1

DaveSWFL,

You are forgiven. Carry on and stack on Brother.

Cheers

John Q. Coinage

I have not got any Nickels past 2023, and the last BU were ‘23d. Cents a couple 25d rollls and PLike singles, not the rolls. Nothing else despite even plunging. USM#s not one 25 AWQ and it almost end of July.
whose in on gold Sac? I m a little tempted …

DaveSWFL

Can the Gibson and Milbern quarter mintages in the last table be correct?
if so, true rarities!

E 1

DaveSWFL,

I think those are the mintages to date.

Half $ Luvah

Again I ask… why does the Mint report monthly production of the NIFC legal tender Kennedys and Native Americans, but NOT the NIFC legal tender American Innovation $$?

Darrell Hammons

Great question, this is a series that is the black sheep. Has low mintages, privy marks, edge lettering “A” & “B”, proofs, reverse proofs, obtain in bags and rolls. It’s got everything going for it but gets no spot light. I added up the Michigan & Florida counted the rolls and bags mintages.
Michigan total-1,128,750
“P”-587,500
“D”-541,250
Florida total-1,138,750
“P”-592,500
“D”-546,250
Maybe one day it will get it’s well deserved efforts. Looks like a lot of work not to mean anything.

Rick

The Mint does at least report sales of the NIFC legal tender American Innovation $$ every week under the “Numismatic Products: Cumulative Sales” section of their reporting.

Maybe when coinnews puts out their Numi charts out in the next day or two, they’ll have some Ai numbers for you to enjoy?
I think Cali had asked for some Ai charts from CN, but no luck?
Between yourself, Cali, and Major Darrell’s requests, maybe you’ll see more Ai reporting?

I Tried to post AI numbers and the gremlins will Not let me post them…

Darrell Hammons

Thanks for your efforts.

CaliSkier

Half $ Luvah, although this gets confusing, I’ll do my best to explain the scenario as I understand it. The Kennedy Halves and Native American $1’s had originally been intended for circulation years ago, before the Mint/Treasury Secretary, ordered them to be made just for collectors or numismatists. I suspect the Mint just never made a switch entirely from an accounting or reporting perspective. Whereas the AI $1 coins had never been produced to actually go into circulation and have only been produced, soley as a NIFC product. Therefore they never have been reported nor shown on the “Circulating Coin… Read more »

“The Superman ½ oz. Gold coin will be priced either $2,670.00 or $2,710.00”

As of today, 19% chance of $2,670.00.
As of today, 79% chance of $2,710.00.
As of today, <1% chance of $2,630.00.
As of today, 2% chance of $2,750.00 or $2,750.00+

Thanks for the analysis, running those probabilities takes time and effort, appreciate it,

At $2,750 or $2,750+.., would Superman still be viewed as ‘equitable’?

Wow. When is a sellout NOT a sellout?

Rick

That’s interesting, and risky even if it were legit.
So, we have a guy who primarily sells cheap Girly pin-up art now attempting to auction off a $50k coin on a Tuesday at 2PM ET – an absolutely abysmal time of the week to auction anything on eBay.
I call BS on this Joker because he stole his FHG pics from a supposed sale at BTRCCOIN on 7/2.
1) Either Girly Boy is up to no good, or…
2) His account was hacked. I lean toward a hack of the account.
Thanks for the post, REB…

It sold for $21,100 ($11,900 LESS than last November). The pictures looked pretty bad to me, almost like the slab, box, and COA had been stored in a hot box in the Everglades. Maybe I’ve just become spoiled by the coin photography that we see here regularly.

The whole thing either 1) seems fishy or 2) reflects a startling reversal in value for this privy-marked rarity.

Rick

He stole the pics, and it’s a sham auction imo.

There is not a chance in Hell that a legit owner of one of these(PR70) would let it go for less than $50k.

REB

Agreed but I am scratching my head.

Craig

Man have they decreased in value! To think I was going to spend $35K on a 70, but didn’t, and now it’s only $21K. I still don’t like the games the mints playing with all these ‘rare’ privy coins. Caveat Emptor!

Someone used to say “To Each His Own” when buying/collecting.
I guess so.

The good thing with all these exclusive labels is a coin is included with them. Lol. $3500-$4000 for the sac. Au coin! Wow, but no thanks.

DaveSWFL, the above 2025 Althea Gibson and 2025 Stacey Park Milner quarters are just the production number totals to date as noted above. They haven’t been released into circulation yet. These are not final production numbers and when they are finished minting, we should expect totals to be somewhere between(?) Vera Rubin, which likely(?) still has additional coins to be minted or reported and the current AWQ series low Mary Edward’s Walker. The production totals on those 2 releases are 118.8 and 300.6 million each respectively. For any wondering, some of the lowest overall combined mintage totals, are those from… Read more »

Great recap Cali, W quarter what a scam it turned out to be maybe looked at $500 worth of rolls, found 2 Lowell, MA W, nada MAs….
i got a lot of the silver proof sets of them 09 quarters. Was a $1.25 of junk Ag for $30 or so, but they b proofs.
Of your list I did get Hawaii volcano and DC Duke E. Shotgun BU rolls. Beacoup of those state Qs still sitting around here….loss leaders, knuckle sandwich enhancers

Vachon

This is two years in a row of sharply reduced mintages. As someone who prefers using cash, I find this unsettling (and as a collector, I find it disheartening)

REB

Completely agree. It amazes me how much money people blow by NOT using cash – point of purchase transaction fees, credit card fees, interest/penalties if the bill isn’t paid on time, and just “if it’s on the credit card, it’s free” overspending.

I do use credit cards for my business and where cash isn’t accepted. But I’d guess I’ve likely saved tens of thousands of dollars over the years by using cash as much as I have.

This fall.., when the Liberty Sunflower ships…

Would anyone have an interest in swapping their 2024 Liberty & Britannia (in OGP, PR70/69) for a sealed box Sunflower?

– While the L&B maintains a secondary premium now, a year from now.., I firmly believe the sunflower will be more equitable than the L&B, the offer is something to consider,

REB

Do we have definitive information on what the finish of the Liberty Sunflower coin is going to be? Proof, I hope, but I’ve seen nothing from the Mint (unless I missed it).

KC&SO

Proof, as cited by coin week recently

REB

Good, good, good. With modern coins, I generally only collect precious metal proofs. But I love the design on this one; an exception might be in order even if it wasn’t proof.

KC&SO

USM posts a lot of real-time relevant info and videos on Facebook (a necessary evil sometimes).., probably in the next week or so, they should start to pump it’s release, and perhaps we’ll see a teaser video, or a trial strike,

There’s a shopped photo of the 2.5 SuperDude medal, and the device looks like it is polished.., A polished SuperDude on the 2.5 snooz/er would be sharp,

I am not in, though know JQC will be in for a Baker’s Dozen… ;7

Yeah, JQC loves him some Superdales with all those golden muscles and … stuff. Thanks for the Mint Facebook page lead. I’ll have to check it out.

Gold touched $3,446,60 this afternoon.., With geopolitical risk, another middle east flare up, tariff battles enduring.., this puppy will be banging on $4,600 Things always heat up in the summer, oh joy!

Rick

While the L&B maintains a secondary premium now, a year from now..” — They will maintain a secondary premium imo.
The L&B has been more than equitable for the OGP buyers that spent $3020 at the Mint on day 1…

L&B in OGP goes for $5-6k, while a slab-70 goes for 6-7k.
The L&B is about to/is surpassing the ’23 “Tree” Lib, and is beginning to leave the FHG in the dust value wise.
The Lower mintage L&B is a sleeper that’s beginning to wake up, just me, and thanks for the reminder!

REB

Have you seen the English L&B, Rick? I almost bought one in Charlotte earlier this year. It’s neat how the positions of Liberty and Britannia are reversed on the coin. It would make an excellent companion piece for our L&B.

KC&SO

Agree with all the aforementioned Rick (read what I wrote), and all calculated in my all of my assumptions as well.., just figured you and someone else out here might have an extra you may want to loose, for something that’ll be 10k by Christmas.., IMHO, All will be equitable, very.., one will just be faster in the palomino races than the others, and all of us ain’t gonna get a daisy, and certainly ain’t gonna feel like a daisy, though for someone that doesn’t get their flower, that want’s one though has a spare L&B laying around, 6 months… Read more »

I hear you bud, I’ll keep you in mind, and prices are getting insane. I have one on the docket to cross at CACg from PC soon, but it’s not at the top of the ‘liquidation list’ just yet…
AK has a couple, REB & Tony@GA w/OGP in the coffers, but I think their hands are pretty tight?…

Yes REB, the UK L&B is a good companion. It’s a collectable bullion coin, and our obverse is their reverse? I do prefer Liberty upright though.

USM Image Library has been updated

Many of the circulating half-dollars and 1$ coins in the new batch are going to Ecuador and El Salvador which uses US currency as legal tender. Panama does also but mints its own coins still so 50c are less common there. Other countries use the USD as legal tender also, of course, but I have only seen the 50c and 1$ circulate freely in Ecuador and El Salvador. As an aside the 2$ bill is popular in Ecuador also.

REB

Interesting.

Thanks Rick. I was hoping the article had a current picture of Randy’l Teton. Anyway, interesting article all the same.
