Fun fact: Just before 1909, there was an image of Lady Liberty on almost every circulating American coin. But over the following 38 years, she was gradually replaced on all of them, mostly by former presidents.

I just looked at the article that was mentioned, and it said things like "thorough research" and "Half As Interesting doesn't rely as heavily on humor".
If I may add some additional insight and thought to this video as I'm an armored currier. When the fed announced the coin shortage, most banks started holding onto the coin they received and rolled themselves to help overcome the shortage. Which is usually bagged and picked up by us, then subsequently taken to the fed to be rolled and redistributed. Currently though most banks have stopped doing that and are sending their coins to the fed like they normally would. There has been an ease on the "shortage" but inventory is still not what it used to be.
Yep, turns out it's coming from all the Alex Jones was right, President Trump was right and biden said something nonsensical/stupid jars in play these days. I'm up to having to use 1000 Bushel grain bins.
Don't listen to these democratic communists... They are stealing the coins from us so that they can melt them to form a new world order... At the head of this new world order? Bernie sanders
This is the first piece of media I've seen actually talk about this. My store's had signs at the registers up asking people not to use cash b/c of this for months and I honestly never knew why. Heard/seen this at a couple other places too
Maybe it is just my area, but no bank has their lobby open. It seems likely, that a big part of the problem is not being able to turn in coins and they just collect at people's houses.
It could also be that the Philadelphia Mint has a long history of producing error coins, which are either double struck, off center struck, and for some reason they break more dies than any other mint.
My credit union (also in Wisconsin) offered gift cards for coins you'd deposit into your account. Granted, they're mostly for Arbys for some reason, but still that worked out pretty good.
I think the shortage is due to the insane act of stamping out hundreds of commemorative coins. That makes people collect them. All the different quarters, nickels, pennys must take billions of them out of circulation. Bicentennial quarters are cool. Wheat penny's are still a joy to find. But come on. $800 in fancy coins in a drawer when your hungry and need toilet paper is pretty strange.
Simple solution: stop accepting cash or make things cost whole dollar amounts, either by not pricing them at x.99 in non-sales tax states or do that and also have the business pay the sales tax. I hate it when I pay for things with cash and end up with a bunch of coins
@@GyroCannon Have you seen the movie "Enemy of the State" with Will Smith & Gene Hackman? If all you have is a chipped card for your $$, big daddy govt can cut you off without leaving their desk.
Okay but one thing doesn’t make sense to me: hardly anyone goes the store and pays for things using coins. This was true before the pandemic. So the idea that coins were going back and forth and back and forth between businesses and customers doesn’t make sense. The coins have always mostly flowed from businesses to customers, who then hoard them for a long time until they deposit them at the bank or whatever or go to a coinstar. So what really changed?
from european perspective that was a bit confussing : hmm, wasn't nebraska a US state? took a couple of sec to get it was just a joke :) , about California, Texas, the penis state (or Florida) and New York most of the world know well, even where to place them on the map . New Jesey , untill the recent idiot program's about them, i had thought to be some suburb from NYC before. not, as it seems to be, neithbouring state that had a lot of the expansion of NYC grown into it :).
Banks in my state are not open to the lobby. You have to make special appointments. They expect you to use the DRIVE-THRU, which by definition DO NOT TAKE COINS. So banks cannot transact coins.
I heard that Argentina, for some unkown reason, ran out of quarters in the 1990s. This lead to shops selling quarters for 20 or so pesos in case if someone doesn't have one for a bus trip.
I'm longing back the days when you used to just focus on the video's matter. For a while already, you've been trying to be funny, makeing fun of others, denouncing political systems, having a very hard time to find a way to connect the video's subject with advertising, and so on. Do you track your statistics? If you find that you get less likes in relation to views than before, or even a trend for more dislikes than usually, or seeing the curve of un-subscriptions becomming steeper in relation to time - or getting comments likes this - you might want to consider going back to your roots and doing what you can do best (and what you were / are loved for): Producing pure fact-based and very interesting videos without any unnecessary frills.
Yup I %100 agree with you , I only clicked on the video to know WHY?! Not to hear unfunny jokes. I like when they focused on the topic and no jokes just being serious about the answer of whatever question
And this video didn't even really answer the original question. Ignoring the jokes, I walked away from this video thinking, ok, so if coin production is back to where it used to be, and people aren't using coins very much any more, we should actually have a "glut" of coins, (whatever that actually means), not a shortage. My gut tells me we have a shortage because everyone (particularly retailers) say we have a shortage. This would be a perfect time to abolish the penny, and maybe even the nickel, while people would barely notice.
Another problem I see is bank are now charging you if you bring in to much rolled coins. My mothers (75 years old) bank for example will charge you $0.30 for each rolled coin past 10 rolls a week. Because of this my mother has many rolled pennies ($85 worth) that she can only turn in $5 a week becouse they would charge her almost the price of the roll ($0.50). This causes her to build up more coin each week.
My problem is that many stores are encouraging the use of credit/debt. They're trying to make the problem better by not allowing the use of the coins they claim there's a shortage of...

Another problem I see is bank are now charging you if you bring in to much rolled coins. My mothers (75 years old) bank for example will charge you $0.30 for each rolled coin past 10 rolls a week. Because of this my mother has many rolled pennies ($85 worth) that she can only turn in $5 a week becouse they would charge her almost the price of the roll ($0.50). This causes her to build up more coin each week.
I had to think hard about what is nebraska there at the end. It sounded familiar but not enough to definitavely call it a state.

Mr. Wendover, did you take this footage of the supermarket yourself, or get it from a stock footage site?
The other customers are wearing masks so it's recent, so I'd guess it probably isn't stock footage.

When will we get a nebula app?
My problem is that many stores are encouraging the use of credit/debt. They're trying to make the problem better by not allowing the use of the coins they claim there's a shortage of...
I thought the shortage was because I kept eating all of them.
