<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 26602505, member: 4626&quot;]Oh almost certainly lol.&nbsp; I&#039;ve come to realize it&#039;s probably the first US coin series, intended for circulation, I&#039;ll see end.&nbsp; Well technically: Eisenhower dollars ended in 1978, but I was only 2 years old at the time.&nbsp; SBA dollars ended in 1999, but they barely circulated.&nbsp; Presidential dollars... may never end truly, if they keep extending it for more presidents, as they already had for George H. W. Bush and I strongly suspect will eventually do for Carter and other presidents.&nbsp; Sacajawea dollars technically ended in 2008, but in 2009 the &quot;Native American dollars&quot; picked up where they left off, and still have Sacajawea on them, so can you say they truly ended?&nbsp; And I&#039;m not counting the various quarter designs which are still Washington quarters (though technically next year 4 out of the 5 quarters won&#039;t have Washington on them lol, but it&#039;s a single year thing, so...)&nbsp; So... Lincoln cents may be... first US coin series, intended for mass circulation, that I&#039;m old enough to know they&#039;re ending, to end in my lifetime.&nbsp; I mean... lot of qualifies there lol, but that&#039;s kind of something isn&#039;t it?</p><p><br /></p><p>Still don&#039;t know when the true last penny will be minted, but there will still be more next year; they haven&#039;t said anything yet about 2027 and later.&nbsp; So we&#039;ll see I guess.&nbsp; 2027 may be the actual first year proof and uncirculated sets don&#039;t have pennies in them.&nbsp; Unless they still put them in there, so who knows yet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
