The United States Mint has updated their circulation coin production figures to include production through the close of 2013. During the year, nearly 13 billion coins were produced, representing an increase of 27.5% compared to the prior year. During the month of December 2013, production was relatively limited, with 285.96 million coins struck at the Philadelphia and Denver Mint facilities. Production has typically been limited during the final month of the year. In the previous year, the US Mint had struck 245.34 million coins in December 2012.

Thanks for the link Jeff. Those numbers are really mind-boggling. The old joke comes to mind: They lose money on every deal, but make it up on quantity.
Come to think of it, where's mine too?
Good Luck,

This explains why I have gotten so many new boxes. I have had 6 brand new boxes of nickels in a row. I don't know when my boxes will be mixed again.
