Grab your limit @ the mint, union station kioisk, and the ceremony (Lincoln Memorial?) | According to Dave Harper of Numismatic News the final Lincoln Penny ( Cent ) LP4 will be released in Washington D. C. on Nov. 12, 2009

I've got crossed fingers for the Shield design to end up on the 2010 - very cool, retro-ish looking design i think. | Anything other than the rectangle postage stamp design flag....
Love the shield designs too!  "look @ my pic"

The last time I spoke with the Mint I asked them , in jest, if there was a chance of releasing the last Lincoln penny on the West Coast  , kinda got dead silence and NO as my answer  | |

Would be nice to see it at The Mint, The Union Station Kiosk AND the Lincoln Memorial for release.
I could get 40 or so rolls that way... (4 rolls limit per person, I go with 2 friends)

I think that the LP4 cent will do large #s. Too many people started to collect these 4 Lincoln 2009 cents and now they don't want to stop.
While at a coin show in Sacramento last week a dealer was selling rolls of the lincoln coins. Each of these rolls were hand re-wrapped so loosely that, #1 Of course he went through all of them and #2- he wanted $6 for the LP1s and $4 for the LP2s & LP3s. I asked him if he had the LP1 in the OGP and he said that all those rolls have sulfur in them and thats why I re- wrapped them. He was so full of Stuff that I could see it comming out of his ears. Even though I am lacking the P & D Lincoln Cabin rolls I could not get myself to buy anything from him. He had "greedy" written all over his face. Next dealer.....

Bruce | I've often wondered if some of those folks selling those rolls have already went through every roll checking for errors , even on ebay when buying the LP1,2,3 &4's from the mint you gotta wonder if those boxes have been tampered with  | |

Grant Memorial , located at the base of the U. S. Capital in Wash. D.C.. The U. S. Mint anticipates this will be the largest attended ceremony of all the previously launched Lincoln cents , so save me a place | |
