Coins Struck on Feeder Finger Tips<br />

After a recent tour of the U.S.<br />

<strong>Mint</strong> in Philadelphia, it was<br />

discovered that the minting process<br />

had changed to some degree. One of<br />

the changes was that “feeder fingers”<br />

were used during the striking of all<br />

denominations of U.S. coins. Prior to<br />

this tour, U.S. coins that were struck<br />

on feeder finger tips were authenticated<br />

and described as being struck<br />

on aluminum scrap. Coins from all<br />

modern denominations have been<br />

discovered that were struck on the<br />

tips of these feeder fingers.<br />
