        Thank you! I wasn't expecting that chunky font on the P, that is interesting!

            Sure looks that way! Maybe Denver will envy it and make a fancy D.

            Sort of need to see them in hand side by side to see if it's really bigger or it just looks that way.

                  Shout out to our design experts! Is this a new font? Is it the same as the font on the reverse? Trying to find a nice way of saying... not real fond of the way it looks.

                    This is really going to be weird. I sure wish they would throw us a bone and make an RPM or two out of them (I know, not possible as long as the MM is still on the master die). I do like the idea and its only for one year, but I wonder how many calls the average East coast coin shop will get about them? I guess any new interest in the cent is good for the hobby in the end.

                      When people ask me about the P, I'm going to tell everyone that this year's cents were minted in Pittsburgh.

                          Nah, tell `em they have an inverted 'b' error!

                            Hey, got an idea. We all should totally track when we see the first ones in our respective areas! Kind of like a mini "Cent Project".

                            I'm going through some rolls I got a couple counties over yesterday, but so far none here in WNY to report.

                              I'm gonna have to drive 30 minutes outta my way to find the next bank branch or to my home branch where I moved from. This one close by is not very friendly. For the first time ever... I asked if the new 2017 "Lincoln Cents" had arrived and the two tellers both said "HUH" at the same time. I had to say... you know... pennies!!!
