rggoodie Moderator United States 23484 Posts	Posted 07/09/2009 07:49 am I had the task of going to Office Depot (an office supply store in the US) in Vero Beach Florida yesterday. While paying for my purchases, I noticed that the cashier had some new one cent coins in the cash drawer. I asked if I could see one - she handed it to me and it was the new Lincoln Cent. I asked I I could purchase them from her. - No problem she had 25 loose ones and a roll of 50. Wow was I exited - First time I had seen these or held one. When I was done I talked to the store manager and he told me he had more rolls in the safe if I wanted them. I am now the proud owner of 11 rolls. All purchased for 50 cents per roll. Those of you I promised to send some to - they will be in the mail this weekend. rggoodie aka Richard "catch em doing something right" Report this Post to the Staff
