United States Mint, Treasury.
Notice of Stakeholder Meeting.
AGENCY:
Pursuant to the Coin
Modernization, Oversight, and
Continuity Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111–
302), the United States Mint announces
its second stakeholder meeting. This
meeting continues the dialogue
concerning the Bureau’s ongoing
Research and Development of
alternative metal compositions for
circulating coinage. This opportunity is
for interested members of businesses,
industries, and agencies.
Date: Wednesday, March 18, 2015
Time: 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (EDT)
Location: United States Mint; 801
Ninth Street NW., Washington, DC, 2nd
floor
Subject: The purpose of this meeting
is to invite individual members of
stakeholder organizations to share their
perspectives on how the United States
Mint would validate the acceptance of
alternative metal compositions
presented in the most recent report to
Congress prior to circulation. The
alternative metal compositions include
those with a similar electromagnetic
signature (EMS) and weight
characteristics that fall within the
acceptable tolerance range of the United
States Mint’s current circulating coins
as well as alternative metals with
different EMS and weight characteristics
than current circulating coins. This
input will support the Secretary of the
Treasury in understanding the balance
of interests and impacts to the public,
private industry stakeholders, and the
Government. Conducting a second
stakeholder meeting is one component
of the United States Mint’s continued
outreach program to ensure to the
greatest extent practicable, that any new
coins work without interruption in
existing coin acceptance equipment
without modification and additional
costs to industry stakeholders.
Information: Attendees are invited to
the following link for a copy of the
United States Mint’s bi-annual report to
Congress, December 2014. https://www.

The report includes a production
costs analysis, coin industry stakeholder
feedback, the alternative metals study
phase II technical report, and estimated
costs of current and alternative metals.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Coin Modernization, Oversight, and
Continuity Act of 2010, in conducting
research and development on
circulating coins, the Secretary of the
Treasury is required to consider:
(A) Factors relevant to the potential
impact of any revisions to the
composition of the material used in coin
production on the current coinage
material suppliers;
(B) Factors relevant to the ease of use
and ability to co-circulate new coinage
materials, including the effect on
vending machines and commercial coin
processing equipment and making
certain, to the greatest extent
practicable, that any new coins work
without interruption in existing coin
acceptance equipment without
modification; and
(C) Such other factors that the
Secretary of the Treasury, in
consultation with merchants who would
be affected by any change in the
composition of circulating coins,
vending machine, and other coin
acceptor manufacturers; vending
machine owners and operators; transit
officials; municipal parking officials;
depository institutions; coin and
currency handlers; armored-car
operators; car wash operators; and
American-owned manufacturers of
commercial coin processing equipment,
considers to be appropriate and in the
public interest.
Special Accommodations: This
meeting is physically accessible to
people with disabilities. Requests for
sign language interpretation or other
related accommodations should be
directed to the Office of Coin Studies
(see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT)
as soon as possible but no later than
March 4, 2015.
This is not a public meeting.
Attendance is by invitation only.
Persons interested in attending the
meeting should use the contact
information provided in this notice no
later than Monday, March 16, 2015, to
request an invitation and obtain
additional meeting information. Seating
will be available on a first-come, firstserved basis.
Input will be gathered orally at the
stakeholder meeting. A transcription
service provider will document the oral
comments.
