    Well I got a roll of Oklahoma quarters from the machine in the Denver Mint's gift shop, and just received two rolls of 2008 halves in the mail from the Mint lol... but I guess that doesn't count. I'll be placing them into circulation though lol...

    Will keep my eyes out, the new year's coinage usually shows up by now, based on previous years. Was on a tour of the Denver Mint yesterday and can assure you they're minting tons of new pennies, literally...

    Will let you know when I truly receive 2008 coinage in circulation without making any deliberate attempts to acquire any.

    I received some 2008 D pennies early this week. Got a couple more today from a fast food store. Nothing like a shinny new penny.

    No '08 coinage yet.

    Can you ask bank tellers for specific year rolls? I usually grab a box or just a few rolls. But I wouldn't mind grabbing a few rolls of pure '08 Lincolns from the bank.

    I've seen nothing yet around here. We have a small convenience store here in town that seems to be the first to have the new stuff...even before the banks! I guess their minting process is a little faster...:whistle:

    Have not received any "in change" so far, but a couple of days ago I picked up several Hamburg €2 coins (circulating commems much like the state quarters). Those were dated 2008 of course ...

    congrats to edix for being the first to post pic in this thread!

    who will be the first to post a pic of a 2008 cent? my guess is that the first 2008 dime can't be far away ... question is, who will find it and where?
