Being a Virginian, the large majority of post-2002 coins I see are from the Philadelphia Mint. This is reasonable considering how close I am to the Philly Mint. I imagine that my West Coast colleauges find the opposite to be true, a large majority of Denver minted coins.

These trends must vary from location to location. Thus, for a given part of the country there must be a commonly seen ratio of P vs. D minted new coins. By extension, there must be a few places in the US where that ratio is near 50/50, equilibrium. I want to know where that is.

I want to make a map of where new coins hit circulation from each mint, Philly and Denver. To do that, I'll need your help gathering data points. Please look at your coins from circulation, disregarding all coins made before 2003, then report here your percentages P vs. D minted coins.

I know this wont help that much. But my ratio is probably like 3/4 to 7/8 P vs D here in SW Ohio.

I know this isn't exactly what you want, but I thought that I would share anyways. I was shocked last year when I got 2 boxes of UNC 2007 D pennies here in Indianapolis from the same bank that gives me all my UNC P pennies. I have about a total of 25 boxes of UNCs (2007 and 2008) and aside from those odd two boxes they are all Ps.

So maybe there is a city out there somewhere where people have a 50/50 chance of getting UNC Ps or UNC Ds. Seems strange, but I suppose it is possible.

Anybody else ever get UNC boxes of both types from the same town?
