I've found 22 of them to date:
I'm missing one variety of each year:
2019: Northern Mariana Islands (AMP): 5 Texas (San Antonio Missions): 2 Idaho (River of No Return):1 Guam (War in the Pacific):1 Massachusetts (Lowell):0
2020: Connecticut (Weir Farm):4 US Virgin Islands (Salt River):4 Kansas (Tallgrass Prairie):4 Vermont (Marsh-Billings):1 American Samoa (Nat'l Park): 0
Interestingly, the two that I'm missing are both the first issue of the respective years.

Good luck! Thanks, jbuck... tomorrow is another "dump and pickup day", so I'll be dumping the coins I picked up Monday and grabbing some more. The first seven came pretty quickly - the War In The Pacific (Guam) coin was just found last week.

So far I have found 63. By far I have found more AMPs (17) and Weir Farm (14) than any of the others. I have only found 2 War in the Pacific so far.

Highlander, out of curiosity, what region of the country are you in? I'm on the West coast. I'm quite curious about the distribution patterns and the finds on a national level.
I'm up to 24 found now, adding a 3rd Texas (San Antonio Missions) and a 5th Kansas (Tallgrass Prairie) to my totals last Thursday.

@John77 that question is something I have been working on as well. I know someone on the east coast that found dozens of Weir Farm but zero American Samoa, while in the midwest my results were exactly opposite.

John77, That is something that I have been wondering myself. I'm not too far from you in Arizona. Looking at your list, the Lowell and WIP were the last two that I had found and I found them both in the same box. In addition to what I listed earlier about finding many more AMP and Weir's, all of the others have been 3-4 each.

i picked the 2020-W V75 samoa bats from an air-vac dirt canister.. deja vu: that's 2 Ws I've picked from an air-vac this year, my 7th W in total   from my own post 1-28-23 (re: the 2019-W I scored then): Quote: salvaged from an air-vac canister last night. I think that's the 6th W I've found, all my W finds have been 2019.. 4 different so far.. 3 from change & 3 from elsewhere.. they are still out there!
