LINK AP Fact Check NOT REAL NEWS: A look at what didn’t happen this week
I have heard about this coin shortage, and I admit I am guilty of being a contributor. I have many dollars worth of coins in my purse, and other places in my house. However, there is not a real shortage even with my stash.

I went food shopping today and brought a pocket full of change. When I paid, the cashier was very grateful that I gave her the change and bought what I could give her. She says there's a shortage of wrapped coins at the bank. Was she lying to me?

There is a temporary shortage as there is less financial activity. The government is not trying to phase out coins. When I was in Germany with US Forces in the late 70s and mid 80s there was a penny shortage on the bases, our change was rounded to the nearest nickle.
