    I suspect within five years, the cent will be history - except maybe in mint sets.... might keep them for collectors. Cheers, RickO

    You know what,Ricko, I suspect in 5 years, U.S. will be a "cashless society" I hope I'm wrong!

    I got one on 2 March - earliest I have seen a new cent in years.

    I scored big the other night. Since the start of the shield cent, I've been pulling them from circulation and collecting each mint mark and filling up plastic roll tubes. I saw some shiny pennies in the cash drawer at a convenience store register and asked if I could exchange a dime for what he had in the register. He tells me, "Hold on, I can hook you up with a whole roll." I give him 50 cents and he gives me a new shrink wrap roll of Ds so my search for Ds is done. image I've gotten about 1-2 P cents in change and the Ds thus far have been phenomenal compared to Philly cents. Philly cents are somewhat spotty.

    The quality out of the Philly Mint is terrible every year versus what the Denver Mint puts out...................image

    I must not be shopping at the right stores. I haven't seen anything from 2012 yet.

    I noticed rolls of 2012-D's in the vault where I work. First 2012 coins I've seen.
