After More Than a Century, Penny Production Is Coming to an End
After more than 100 years in circulation, the U.S. Department of the Treasury has officially announced that it will stop producing pennies in 2026. While pennies will remain legal tender, they will gradually become less common in everyday transactions.
What This Means for You
With the end of penny production, the Federal Reserve will no longer receive new penny supplies from the U.S. Mint. Existing pennies will stay in circulation until they naturally phase out through wear and attrition. The Federal Reserve will continue distributing its remaining inventory, though availability may vary by region and financial institution.
For most consumers, this change will have minimal day-to-day impact. Retailers and businesses may begin rounding cash transactions to the nearest five cents, following standard rounding rules—rounding down for amounts ending in one or two cents, and rounding up for amounts ending in three or four cents.
When You Visit a CSB Branch
You’ll notice the following updates regarding penny transactions:
- Rolled pennies will be limited to existing business customers and available only in smaller amounts while supplies last.
- CSB will continue accepting deposits of pennies.
- You may be asked, “Would you like us to deposit your change, or would you prefer to receive it?”
Electronic and card-based payments will remain unchanged, as they can continue to process exact amounts.
