A. Parker, expects an even greater output in 1965. Coin production at the mint parking meters, as tripled in the Jast three years. In 1964 about 600,000,000 coins were minted, 50 per cent more than in 1963. The mint has been working double shifts six days a week to keep pace and the. extra ef- fort has prevented any serious coin shortage. Officials believe the coin de- mand is caused by increasing popularity of vending machines, retail sales taxes and likely for cookie-jar penny saving.
