My son came home last night from the neighborhood store (in Kalamazoo Michigan for those trying to track distribution) and found a 2009 D in his change. The kid is getting real lucky with this. A little while back he and a friend were at a local Walgreens and found one in change. Talked to the Manager and ended up with 11 rolls. I think I ought to give him a $100.00 bucks to keep in his wallet just in case.  Here is a pic I wanted to do one up for him. So I played around with some new photo editing software. I like how you can flip things around with it.

I haven't found any in circulation yet. I got one out of 4 boxes I've been through in the last 2 weeks. I did get the last 2 rolls my bank had.

They have been in circulation here in southern New Mexico for about a month or more now... all Denver mint of course. I got my first in my change before I received my LP1 set, which was a good thing because it kept me from opening the mint box when it arrived.

I got one yesterday at the book store. It was a Philadelphia mint. The only one that they had in the change drawer. I live in the Chicago Western burbs.

I got my first Log Cabin Cent in change on April 6th, and two dozen more since, but the odd thing is they're still only coming into circulation randomly from mixed circulated armored car company rolls.  Several of my co-workers are looking for Log Cabin Cents in their change, and none of us has received more than one of them at a time. I get more Wheat Cents in my change than I do Log Cabin Cents, averaging at least a 2-to-1 Wheat/Log Cabin ratio, sometimes down to 3-to-1...
