I think eaglefoot mentioned in another thread that even if you could get a log cabin from both mints, at least one of them would probably be in bad shape. Well, I'm in East Texas and this is usually the case. I get Denvers pretty quick and in good shape, but Phillies take a while and are usually worse. Well, I guess I got lucky this year: Image: 2009obv1.jpg100.54 KB Image: 2009obv2.jpg97.73 KB Image: 2009Prev1.jpg93.28 KB Image: 2009Prev2.jpg95.83 KB I wouldn't call them BU, but very nice AU at least.

 ...... Lucky is the appropiate word here !..... And yes you certainly did !.....NICE !....  But I believe it has been mentioned that several states where "known release states"....and Texas was one state mentioned. So, you have a step up on the rest of us in getting "both" Mints in decent shape ! Sweet though !....

I received 2 in change today. Both look like they just came out of the roll but the clerk said no more in the drawer, he got them from a customer.

I got another one, Denver, in a roll yesterday. That makes a total of four. I had asked a very nice teller at one of my banks if she had/could get any of them. She said she would try. Tonight I saw her while I was at work. She said the mint was out and they couldn't order any, but she would look for them and hold any she finds for me. I told you she was a nice lady. :)

Ok, I finally found my first one in circulation..... well sort of. I found one in the "take a penny - leave a penny" cup at the DQ. So I took one and left two. Let's not go there, this has been discussed at length on this board. Anyway, my first one.

At this stage, I think any of us on this board would gladly 'take' a Log Cabin Cent out of a 'take a penny - leave a penny' cup and replace it with another Cent (or two). Way to go, The_Duke!  If Wells Fargo called and said "we got a box of Log Cabin pennies", I'd go right over and buy them!

I finally got 8 rolls this morning. I got 4 at two different branches, but at the same bank. They only got a few in, so they limited them to their customers. All were P's.

I have, like others been checking ebay and one seller states he "works in a bank" and also he goes on to say " he has an unlimited supply available", That hurts......

I'm a cashier, and see hundreds of pennies per day. I have found ONE 2009 coin of any denomination - a penny, just the other day.

Went to the bank today and the teller asked me if I wanted these. They were ten rolls of the new lincoln.
