| I have only found 1 from my bank roll searches. I did buy the 5 set maximum of the 2nd design from the mint. I opened one set of P and D mint rolls and found a lot of different errors in the P mint roll. |

| Snagged a D log cabin myself last week in a brinks box. I about tossed it in the zinc pile, then noticed an unfamiliar reverse and thought it was a foreign coin, but was pleased to finally see one! |

Sadly, I have yet to see one in change or from rolls here in Florida. The only ones I have seen were at the coin dealers and they are too expensive for me. Perhaps soon I will find one if I keep looking long enough. I can keep hoping anyway.
Enjoy. |

| I'm finding quite a few of both in my bank boxes. What's the big deal about these? I now people were paying $8-9 for uncirculated rolls, but don't really understand why. |

| Found a 2009P Formative Years penny in the parking lot of WalMart. Later I was shopping and received one in change from another store. So I rushed back in and said the cashier don't shut your drawer. I held up the penny and said do you have any more of these in there that I can buy. She sold me 20 pennies. I went back to the store today to buy something and got a few more in my change. Then I asked if I could buy the roll of pennies in the drawer. She sold me a roll of 2009P Formative Years. YAY!! I asked a manager if he would sell me more rolls and he said no. Well at least I tried....and I'm still really pleased with all that I found in two days. |

Many collectors think that these coins seem to tone or tarnish in the wrappers so they buy the first ones out so they can get a nice coin to have graded. Just my opinion. |

Traveled from Upstate, NY to Savannah, GA this past weekend. Got my first 2009, log cabin, in change. My granddaughter asked for a penny for the wishing well.
Hope she gets her wish  |
You're kidding, right? |
