 Hi, I went to the bank yesterday & while I was there, picked a couple of nickel rolls to see what I could find. Lo & behold, out popped 2 of these. As you can see, It is been well circulated & beaten up a bit, but they exist. For a while, I thought it had to be a conspiracy about them being a scarce coin. like wow! *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***

I've found a few Denver mint 2009's this year but No Phillies. And I live in Ohio, figure it would be the other way around. Keep searching  |

They do seem to be challenging to come by in circulation. I have nearly a roll of them from my CRH efforts ... nearly all Philly mint as I live in Maryland.
Despite their relative scarcity to find in the wild ... they are not near the top of the listing of lowest mintage Jefferson.
I posted a thread a few years back (2011 maybe?) where I shared the relative mintage of all coins (up the then) in the Jefferson series 1938 to date.
The 2009-P Jefferson checks in as #34, while the 2009-D Jefferson checked in at #40.
Still ... a nice find in the wild.

to the madhouse! I'll find a 2009D usually in a box, sometimes two but never more. I have found 5-2009Ps in roughly 50,000 searched.(stopped counting early this year). Those 2009P were at least over a year ago, none this year. Live in central MO. |

They can be challenging to come by indeed, but not impossible. |

I've saved every 2009 nickel I've obtained since they were minted. I have 4 (3D's, 1 P). That includes the 2 examples in my album.

I can count my 2009 nickel finds on one hand, too.  |

The last show I attended, there was a guy selling sets of two OBW rolls (P/D) for $30! I know they're lower mintage, but jeepers...
I've yet to find one in rolls or circulation. I only have those in my 2009 Mint sets.
