Well, I finally got some new Lincoln Cents at the bank today. I landed two rolls. Odd thing is they're in plastic wrappers. Oh well, sure beats the prices on E-bay.

Are you throwing that out? |

| Banks here in MN have the new d-lincolns I scored 32 rolls the other day. Also alot of banks are limiting rolls to one per customer. Most banks only get one box of new lincolns |

| I'm in FL, and I got two rolls of P. This was a Sun Trust bank. I haven't seen them anywhere else, and my Credit Union said they aren't going to order any. Now I just need to find a few rolls of D's. |
Are you throwing that out? |

So, I'm at my parents house with my family having dinner when the penny topic comes up. Mentioned that I sorted 72 boxes Friday night and still have yet to see the new '09. My dad says "hold on", reaches in his pocket and tossed one to me. Told me he saw it in the "need a penny...have a penny" cup at his work cafeteria register the other day.
Now I have one from a guy who doesn't sort but knows what to do when he sees it- give it to the guy who spends too much time sorting and still can't find one. LOL |

| The manager of the main branch of a local credit union finally broke down and gave me her number to call on Thursday. I should finally be getting some of the new Lincoln Cents! It pays to be persistent. |

Hi all-

not taking it for granted, tho-

Only when they CAN'T have it, ......THEN they'll want it.
I love Cents. If you get an UNC box, you win. If you get a regular circ. box, you win. If you get a zinc box, you don't lose....so you still win. |

Americans will buy anything, at least for a while....

p.s. wagsthadog, $200 per box is good, but that is even low. Are the prices already falling? |
Live free or die. Plain and simple.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your council or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams |

Hi There-
Yeah, I really dont follow the BU penny market but the box WAS open, and I guess that's a big strike against it. I had it up @ $250, got no bites, put it @ $200, and it sold in 2 hours- at 1 AM!!
moved and moving on....
