    I noticed something interesting a few days ago. I keep the best of the best change (AU55 and up), so I have a big collection of newer coins (cheap and fun way to keep me occupied)

    I have found a TON of D minted coins, and barely any P minted coins

    For example:

    Cent, Nickel, Dime- haven't seen P minted dated after 2006
    Quarter- haven't seen P minted coins dated after 2007
    Dollar- haven't seen P minted coins dated after 2000 (circulation hiatus)

    It must be because of where I live (VERY far from the Philadelphia mint/ AK)

    Anyway, what mintmark do you find the most in your change?

    Philidelphia. Mostly because Denver is thousands of miles away.

    Denver, of course Vegas is a lot further from Philly than Denver.

    For some odd reason, I have found 6 2010-D Dimes, and 3 from the same McDonalds, each a month apart, and even weirder, for the same thing each time.

    About 6 months ago, I got 2 boxes of cents from my bank for roll searching. 36 were brand new NR String rolls of 2010 Ds. Not much to look at there. lol

    Gotta say Denver. After all, it's right next to California.

    Edit: Haha, dumb mistake.

    Colorado isn't right next to California, its just close.
