Not necessarily, but likely. You could replace a damaged item with a new
copy with a different barcode, for instance.
And, I've seen libraries reuse barcodes of deleted items on new items on
a different title/bib record simply because they had extra barcodes
laying around. When the long lost/deleted item shows up again and staff
try to undelete it or check it in, hilarity ensues.
People don't always do what is most "correct."

Diane,
When a new copy is created to replace a deleted copy, the prior
circulation stats stay on the deleted copy. Depending on how
statistical
reports are formed, those stats on the deleted copy may be lost. They
certainly do not show up as stats for the new copy.
I think the bug is asking for a way to roll the stats from the old copy
forward to the new one when a copy is being replaced. This way the old
circ stats show up in the staff client and on reports.
