I've been collecting since 2011, and yesterday I received my first Wheatie in change from the Subway at the hospital where I work. It was a great moment. Gosh darn it, I've got to start a set of these. I'm a silver dollar guy, but Lincolns have grown on me a lot these past few years.

1958-D Lincoln Cent.

Huh, I guess times must be changing. Used to be (2012 and before) I couldn't use cash for long before I found at least one in change; used to find 2-3 per week minimum as a cashier.

Anyway, nice coin with really nice circulation cameo going on!

Well being from New York, my first thought was that there are no subways in Tennessee. I was thinking about the underground trains. You must be talking about that fast food place. Never mind. Congrats on the find! Good pictures BTW!

Well done! I remember when I was driving Route 66 in 2000 I got a 1942D Wheatie in change somewhere in Oklahoma. Glad they're still around in the wild! In the UK the oldest coins in circulation are dated 1971!
