I personally rarely ever spend my change, and if I do it is because I need it for the tax and don't have an extra dollar on me to break. But that rarely ever happens. When my kids were little, I would cash it in once a year and we would take them on a small vacation to a near by amusement park. But as they flew the nest and our income increased because of that and better paying work for both my husband and I. I just stockpile it. But I also collect old coins, bills and other precious metals like silver, gold, brass and some others metals. My husband was a CNC machinist for 28 years, and though he doesn't do that for a living anymore he keeps his skills up to date just in case he needs to make us stuff. Or make parts to fix stuff.

It appears you're doing all the right things... If I had to sell some of my Collection, I'd sell my Gold first, my Silver Second and my Common U.S. Coinage last... I think U.S. Coinage will have Legal Tender Status, long after the Fiat USD's go to Zero... Plus, there's a good chance that it will increase 100 fold in Spending Power...
I am not as confident on new coinage as most of it isn't made with anything worth much. But I collect anything 1964 or older though I do also keep anything older than 1970 as there was still a little precious metals in some of the coins, But I am a prepper and I know what tough times are like, so I save my change for tough times or for SHTF or for my kids to deal with after I die one day.
We the people are going to be sitting pretty on the other side of the U.S. Monetary Correction... Hold on tight to your Common U.S. Coinage...
Even if I'm wrong about our New Product Line of "Circulating" Silver and Gold Coins, our Common Coinage will still be good...
