Still news to me. Thanks for the link!

 

Will this be like searching for a golden ticket to visit Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory?

 

Yeah, if you bring in the rare coin to the mint, the will give you a free BU roll of 2019 Pennies. whoopie

 

Coin roll hunters, start your engines!

 

Anyone know what it is yet?
Denomination etc?

 

My initial guess would be an S mint coin released into circulation - most likely the quarter, since they've been minting S coins on circulation planchets for a few years now... or the penny, due to its visibility. Would be a circulating W coin for the first time, or simply a low-mintage ala 2009 issue.

 

The real key will be the distribution method to ensure as wide a spread as possible so they don't all end up in just a few peoples hands at first. I discussed a method for that on another thread.

 

Probably a penny struck on a copper nail.
