Has anyone picked up any Lincoln Presidential dollars yet? My bank got some in and had an opened roll in the change try so I grabbed 3 of them. The sides of the planchets aren't great quality - kind of lumpy. |

I was hoping that they would have a release ceremony in Springfield again but it was held in DC  Hopefully these dollars will be more widely available than the others released in the past two years. |

I picked up one for my set. Decided not to get a roll. I might regret it later. When I asked for one the teller picked up a roll and started bashing it on the side of the counter to open it. Not once but repeatedly until it was fully open. I feel sorry for the people that get those. Probably look like they were in a car wreck.  |

I picked up four rolls today.
I would trade one of the rolls (P mint), a head/tail bank wrap roll for a roll of D mint.

I went to 5 banks today and was able to find 2 rolls. How do I tell if they are P or D?

I picked up a roll of "D" Lincolns (hint, mikemc - whichever mint is closest to you is probably the one that you'll get coins from) a couple of weeks ago at my Credit Union Service Center which serves 3 or 4 local credit unions. And mikemc:  |

on the rim it tells the date and mint mark. I do not how they have it on this coins rim. Since its a goldish-brown the engraving is hard to read on the coin.

I haven't seen any of them yet, just the mints artists renditions. I'd like to see one to see if they really gave him two left eyes like it shows in the Mints pictures. (Normally the eye is rounded on the side by the nose and comes down to a point out by the sides of the head. On the Mints pictures both of Lincoln's eyes are rounded on the left side and pointed on the right (as a persons left eye appears as you face them.)

Wells Fargo got some in last week.....but they only received the P mint mark. I collect all things Lincoln and the coins are nice,but I think they will make a ton of them so they will probably never be valuable. |
