The latest batch of US Mint coin production figures are now available and they show several noteworthy changes in June. Lincoln cents jumped, quarters and Presidential dollars rose more modestly, and Jefferson nickels leveled out between mints.
US Mint year-to-date coin figures are updated at the beginning of each month, enabling mintages to be calculated as they are above. Notice the increase in Lincoln Cents - especially from Denver.
The Mint has not yet said whether these numbers are for the upcoming Aug. 13 release of the Lincoln Professional Life penny or more of the Formative Years/Rail Splitter cents. If they are for the latter, the mintage in Denver will bounce to 363,600,000 and rise in Philadelphia to 376,000,000.
