I haven't seen any yet, but my understanding is that, going forward, cents minted in Philadelphia will no longer contain a P mint mark. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Quote: The mint added a mint mark ("P") to the 2017 Lincoln cents manufactured in Philadelphia to celebrate the 225th anniversary of the founding of the United States Mint. The tradition of not having a mint mark on Lincoln cents made and Philadelphia will resume with the production of 2018 dated Lincoln cents. Info I found

I think 2017 was just a one time for the anniversary.

I haven't seen any 2018 cents yet, but I think that they have no mint mark for Philadelphia.
Where I live, most of the cents are from the 60s/70s/80s, and Shield cents are not nearly as common as Memorial cents. I have only ever seen one 2017 cent in circulation.

I thought the P on Cents was a Mint error with the tail added on the bottom of the D.
