I found a 2009P in my change about a month or so ago, and I live in Canada.

Quote: Especially these days with widespread information regarding mintages, everybody and their mother has easy access to bunches of these coins. I believe no future circulation strike will ever be worth anything ever again. I agree, unless, for some reason, there is a genuinely small mintage of some circulating coin for some strange reason. The lack of scarce circulation issues may increase interest and demand for errors and varieties among those who seek rarities.

I've searched over 50 boxes here in Denver and have found only ONE - yes ONE 2009-P nickel in circulation! I've also found exactly one each: 38D, 38S and 39D to give you some perspective. I'm up to about a roll on the 2009-D's.

Quote: I believe no future circulation strike will ever be worth anything ever again.  .... WELL GOOD GOD GURDY ! Naw.....the contrarian argument against collecting any Ultra Modern coinage is certainly valid and not without merit and obvious facts. BUT......I do believe that we are on the precipice of a new frontier in coin collecting. In part, with the population of this country at heights never seen in our history, and doubling and tripling through the recent decades and fore casted to reach A BILLION people (like China was) in a few more decades. The mintage numbers actually will or already do reflect some of this. And the State Qtrs and now the ATB's are or have brought hundreds of thousands of new YN's into the hobby. And these "Ultra Modern" coins are generally DESPISED by hard core Classic collectors (and/or the older generations), who never have or never will have in any interest in them. It's these NEW kids who will change and drive this new direction of coin collecting to include these. Unacceptable to Classic collectors as this is....I believe it's the future of our sport that the Ultra Modern coins "will" be included and desired in collections for generations to come. The changes will be in ways that we can't even get our brains around yet, and will take paths that are unfathomable to us right now, I firmly believe.Maybe....just maybe, when we're all in our 90's, we'll get to see this happen, or begin to happen....and we'll probably get headaches observing this and will be scratching and shaking our heads about it...... (and my inheritors will be pleased that they'll have Classic AND what "was" Ultra Modern coins in the family)

eaglefoot, for the record I am one of the "YN", although I have been into the hobby since I could barely walk well before the State Quarters started. The US population will not reach 1 billion people for a very long time (if ever), and that wouldn't make a difference anyway. What I believe is that there are enough BU coins floating around that none of these modern issues will ever be worth anything. Right now there are probably 100 BU 2009 nickels for every person that wants to collect one...maybe more. That doesn't equal value. Value is an 1877 IHC, where we all want one, but none of us can even get our hands on one that doesn't break the bank or looks like its been run over by a train.

I'm in the Florida panhandle and I search about 5 nickel rolls a week and have not found any 2009 p or d yet. I guess they were just not released around here. I envy those of you that have found some.

I got a 2009 D nickel from coin roll hunting yesterday. I have 9 with the P mintmark and just 3 with the D mintmark. I hope to find some more of these.

I have yet to find a 2009 nickel or dime but I'm only looking in pocket change. I may need to search some rolls to get my moderns up to date

After many, many, many rolls, I've found only one 2009-D nickel. Better odds to find a Buffalo nickel than a 2009 here in NW Pennsylvania.

I look through 10 - 20 rolls a week for the last 6 months. I'm in WV and have seen 2 2009-D and no 2009-P. Neither 2009-Ds were of any quality.

I haven't found any 2009 nickels yet. Got a 2009-P dime from a vending machine, though.

The 2009's must be location specific. If you were lucky enough to have them released in your area, then you can find some. Unfortunately for me, there don't seem to any in this area.

I live in Houston Texas, I found out about the low mintage from this post late last week so I never knew to look for them. Since learning of this I have searched for the 2009 P & 2009 D I'm my last two boxes and have found the following.
5 x 2009D 1 x 2009P
Guess they are widely circulated in my area
