Abstract

Our next article talks about change-as in coins. Every year, the government produces about 70 new coins for every man, woman, and child. But the economy's need for coins can vary from year to year. So how do the U.S. Mint, which makes the coins, and the Federal Reserve, which distributes them, decide how many coins the economy needs? In \\"U.S. Coins: Forecasting Change,\\" Dean Croushore highlights some facts about coins and describes how demand for change is forecast.
