When the U.S. Mint stops making a coin, do they break their molds and dies? Or do they store them away?
 
Good question. I'm sure somebody knows on here.
 
the law was that they must be destroyed,"by fire and sledge"whish meant torched..olympic commemorative dies,an x carved in them.Others ground flat.they are out there and some collect them.
