It's 2 months into 2018 and I have yet to get one of these coins in change. Admittedly, one impediment I have is the fact that I live about 30 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. I'm wondering if anyone west of the Mississippi have found any of these. (No fair if you work at the airport, or found one on a trip to the East Coast.

Hang-in there. With Billions (with a "B") minted, they will surely find their way West....and around the world for that matter.

PM me, I'll send you a few.

It might be because your mint produces the proofs, and those dont get handled and traded as do the P's & D's.

I agree with USSID18. I am on the East coast and I only have been doing this for about 6 years and no other year have I seen this many pennies from one single year. They have to make their way out there soon. It was about 2 months into '17 when my father got his first in FL. Here in CT it was about April I was starting to see them everywhere. Then at one point every 3rd box I would get from the bank were all new 2017P. I can't open a roll without seeing 5 or 6 in it. I dumped about $50 worth after checking for errors and I have 4 boxes put away. I can't see how these things are not making there way out to the West!

I'm in the same part of the country as the OP and have seen a good number of the 2017-Ps... most of those I've found have come from CWRs.
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

I live near Phoenix and have not seen one here. I did get a batch when I was in NYC a couple months ago nut that was cheating.
