..........dont worry, I put in a quarter to "make up" for it, but anyway.........the first one I found. Actually took both of them in there, but the other had a big nasty fingerprint.

    Oh good, now I don't feel guilty for buying coins like the 1926 wheat out of a donation cup.

    image It's the one design I haven't found yet. Now I also know that I'm not the only one who "replaces" coins in the donation cup at Dunkin' Donuts.

    Nice!

    I got my first Shield cent today --- not from change, but from a friend who got it in change.

    In the St. Louis area I have received all of the 09 Lincoln reverses in change, and in February I received the 2010 shield reverse in change as well. Still no 2009 Nickels or Dimes though!!!

    I actually found about 10 of those cents from circulated rolls at a bank several weeks ago... All "D" mints.

    I'd call a few banks in your area for those 2010 - you can probably scrounge up a box or two if you really want them. Seems pretty easy to make a few bucks off them by the box. We probably won't get them up our way until 2012...
