I don't know why but these are tough to find:

    Those are kinda tough. I've only come across one. You'll see the fives and tens a lot, and once in a while a two, but the ones are elusive. Far more than you would expect, from looking at their mintages.

    The coins that are the hardest to find in nice condition are the coins that were used the most. And the coins that were seldom used are the ones easiest to find in nice condition. Typically, the smaller denomination coins fit in the first group.

    Doug is right. That's the nicest one I've ever seen.
