美国便士即将来临的“死亡”聚焦了硬币自己的价格标签 - 近4美分，以制造和分发每种价格，或者四倍。

唐纳德·特朗普总统呼吁他的政府停止一分钱的几个月后，美国造币厂本周宣布，它已经制作了最终的一分钱空白订单，并计划在耗尽后停止制作新的1美分硬币。

The impending “death” of the U.S. penny has spotlighted the coin’s own price tag — nearly 4 cents to make and distribute each, or quadruple its value.

美国一分钱即将来临的“死亡”焦点介绍了硬币自己的价格标签 - 将近4美分用于制造和分发，或者将其价值四倍。

Months after President Donald Trump called on his administration to cease penny production, the U.S. Mint announced this week that it had made its final order of penny blanks — and plans to stop making new 1 cent coins after those run out.

唐纳德·特朗普总统呼吁他的政府停止一分钱的几个月后，美国造币厂本周宣布，它已经制作了最终的一分钱空白订单，并计划在耗尽后停止制作新的1美分硬币。

Coin production costs vary thanks to different raw metals used, complexity of their designs, labor needed and more. Many of those expenses have been on the rise — and the penny isn’t the only coin entering our wallets today that costs more to make than it’s worth (enter the nickel debate).

由于使用了不同的原始金属，其设计的复杂性，所需的人工等等，硬币生产成本各不相同。这些费用中有许多一直在上升 - 一分钱并不是当今唯一进入我们钱包的硬币，其成本要高于价值（输入镍辩论）。

Here’s a rundown of U.S. Mint production costs from the government’s latest fiscal year.

这是政府最新财政年度以来美国造币厂生产成本的利润。

Each penny costs nearly 4 cents — or $0.0369, to be exact — for the U.S. Mint to make and distribute.

每一分钱的成本近4美分（确切地说是$ 0.0369）才能使美国造币厂制作和分发。

In total, America’s coin manufacturer said it shipped more than 3.17 billion pennies throughout its 2024 fiscal year. That’s notably less pennies than it sent the year prior (when nearly 4.14 billion 1-cent pieces went out) — but circulating shipment for all coins was down about 44% overall. The Mint often changes its new circulation based on public demand and seasonal trends.

美国硬币制造商总体而言，它在2024财政年度的运输量超过31.7亿美元。这比一年前寄出的便士要少（当近41.4亿1美分的零件出现时），但是所有硬币的发货量总计下降了约44％。造币厂通常会根据公共需求和季节性趋势改变其新的流通。

At the same time, the penny’s “unit cost” has gone up in recent years. The nearly 4 cent price tag is up 20.2% from the Mint’s 2023 report, when a penny cost just over 3 cents.

同时，近年来，一分钱的“单位成本”增加了。近4％的价格比薄荷的2023年报告上涨了20.2％，当时一分钱的成本刚刚超过3美分。

Each nickel costs nearly 14 cents ($0.1378) to make and distribute. That price tag is nearly triple the five-cent coin’s buying power today.

每个镍的制作和分发成本近14美分（0.1378美元）。这个价格标签几乎是五美分硬币今天的购买力三倍。

The unit costs for both the penny and the nickel have remained above face value for 19 consecutive years, the Mint noted in its latest annual report. And, like the penny, the nickel has also seen recent price jumps — with the latest 14 cent cost up 19.4% from the 2023 fiscal year, when its cost sat under 12 cents.

MINT在其最新的年度报告中指出，一分钱和镍的单位成本连续19年保持在面值之上。而且，就像一分钱一样，镍的价格也涨幅了 - 最新的14美分比2023财政年度的成本增长了19.4％，当时其成本不到12美分。

U.S. Mint reported shipping 202 million nickels over its 2024 fiscal year, down from nearly 1.42 billion sent out the year prior.

美国造币厂报告说，在2024财政年度运输了2.02亿镍，低于一年前派出的近14.2亿美元。

Each dime costs nearly 6 cents ($0.0576) to make and distribute.

每个角钱的制作和分发成本近6美分（0.0576美元）。

That represents more than half of the 10 cent coin’s buying power. And the cost of producing and distributing the dime increased 8.7% over the last year.

这代表了10美分硬币的购买力中的一半以上。去年，生产和分配一角钱的成本增长了8.7％。

In total, the U.S. Mint reported shipping 840 million dimes for its 2024 fiscal year — down from nearly 2.67 billion the year beforehand.

美国造币厂总共报告了其2024财政年度的运输8.4亿角钱，低于预一年的近26.7亿。

The quarter costs nearly 15 cents ($0.1468) to make and distribute.

该季度的制造和分发成本将近15美分（0.1468美元）。

That’s also more than half of the 25 cent coin’s buying power today. The quarter’s unit cost has increased by 26.2% since the Mint’s 2023 report, when its price tag was closer to 12 cents.

这也是今天25美分硬币的购买力中的一半以上。自造币厂的2023年报告以来，该季度的单位成本增长了26.2％，当时其价格接近12美分。

U.S. Mint said it shipped more than 1.6 billion quarters in the 2024 fiscal year, down from about 2.27 billion the year prior.

美国造币厂表示，在2024财政年度，它的季度超过16亿季度，低于一年前的22.7亿。

The half-dollar coin costs nearly 34 cents ($0.3397) to make and distribute.

半美元硬币的制造和分发成本近34美分（0.3397美元）。

That represents nearly two-thirds of the 50 cent piece’s buying power. And its price has increased by more than 30% since the 2023 fiscal year, when the coin’s production cost was just under 26 cents.

这代表了50分钱的购买力中的近三分之二。自2023财政年度以来，其价格上涨了30％以上，当时硬币的生产成本不到26美分。

U.S. Mint said it shipped 52 million half-dollar coins in its 2024 fiscal year, up from 18 million coins shipped in the 2023 period.

美国造币厂表示，它在2024财政年度运行了5200万个半美元硬币，高于2023年期间的1800万枚硬币。

Coins aren’t the only form of physical money that vary in production costs. Dollar bills also see differences due to paper and ink used, labor and other expenses.

硬币并不是唯一在生产成本中变化的物质货币的形式。美元账单还看到由于纸张和墨水，劳动力和其他费用而引起的差异。
