PITTSBURG, Kan. —  President Donald Trump ordered the discontinuation of the production of the one-cent coin in February, but about 140 million had already been created for circulation. In the past, typical mintage was in the billions, annually. Now, the chase is on for area collectors to get the 2025 P (Philadelphia) and 2025 D (Denver).
