Bucket of Coins

It appears more 2009 pennies were minted during the month of February raising the total for the Philadelphia mint to 194.4 million and the Denver Mint to 342.4 million. It is not clear whether or not this was the minting of the new 2009 Lincoln Formative years penny or more of the 2009 Lincoln birthplace log cabin penny. Either way the production numbers are super low as stated in a previous post, the US Mint is usually in the BILLIONS of cents minted by this time of the year. Hopefully a breakout of the four types of 2009 Lincoln’s will be available in the future rather than a running total.

It still appears that the Philadelphia mint is producing far fewer than Denver at this point so I am trying to gather as may Phillies as I can!

Also it appears the Mint is going to be selling rolls 2009 Lincoln Birthplace Log Cabin from both mints for $8.95 + $4.95 for shipping beginning March 13th.
