The Coin Shortage Wasn’t Our Fault

The Coin Shortage wasn’t our Fault But we did our part keeping all these pennies out of circulation. We asked at the bank for the coin roll wrappers. Yes, we have plans to count and wrap them up. Seems a daunting task.

According to this article the coin shortage caused during the pandemic is over.

Now it’s not guessing how many jelly beans in a quart jar but I’m trying to guess the total. There are some other denominations besides pennies. Stay tuned.

Do you have a penny jar? A dish of spare change?

Do you know a Numismatist?

“Numismatics is the study of coins and other currency units and is usually associated with the appraisal and collection of rare coins.” Investopedia

The music teacher at the Community Center sported this t. Her son is collecting snd studying coins. Pp

Numismatist“Numismatists study the physical attributes of the payment media rather than the use and function in an economy. The term numismatics is often used interchangeably with the coin collection, though it connotes more intensive study than just simply collecting coins. It could be said that all numismatists are coin collectors, but not all coin collectors are numismatists.” Investopedia

I know a casual coin collector.
