      Can I jump in here and Hijack your thread jallengomez ? or resurrect it?

      I'm just to lazy to look it up. Does anyone know what the final mintage for the 2017 P will be? I'm guessing Billions!

        That number won't be known until they finish, which my guess is they already have.

          As an American coin collector, I should probably know what that shield represents. I never bothered looking it up because I was never impressed with it. It doesn't even look American to me. I've seen better designs come out of 3rd world countries! JMHO..

            I agree Tom, maybe some day they will bring back the Memorial reverse!

              I'd like to see a different look on Abe himself as well. Use the image of him from Mt. Rushmore, or something.

              Heck, they did it with Jefferson!

              Has ministered before Him — There's no Vitality."

                Might only be my area but this year it seems the 17s are not showing up as much as the new cents did in the past years.
                I'm not talking about in solid bricks, I mean what I get in change. Most of the new looking cents are still 16s and only a few 17s.
                Haven't seen a single P mint in change yet either, only Ds out here.

                Are you guys seeing the same thing, less 17s than expected?

                  So far, I have only had one instance of getting them in change.

                      I'm in SouthWestern VA and am also seeing them somewhat but of course I'm still figuring out what to look for...

                        I have just ran across what is only my second 2017 D. Are others on the east coast seeing the lack of D's?

                          I'm guessing the P's are on the East coast and the D's are found in Denver and West coast.

                            I just figured they would have moved around more by now.

                              The last several boxes I've done have had several of the Denver mint coins.

                                In the last 2 years I am seeing D's a lot quicker on the east coast. And last year I recieved a full box of straight 2016 D. Seems odd.
