$1 Coin Inventories
Reserve Bank inventories of $1 coins decreased by about $37 million over the past year, to approximately $1.32 billion as of June 30, 2015 (see table). Inventories are about $1.25 billion more than the Reserve Banks held before the start of the Presidential $1 coin program. Assuming continuation of current levels of demand, Reserve Bank inventories will continue to decrease slowly over time. We estimate that Reserve Banks currently hold sufficient $1 coin inventory to meet demand for 30 years.
