Has anyone else noticed the amount of 2008 D pennies around lately? In the last couple weeks I've noticed VERY few pennies in my change that weren't shiny 2008s (any others often 2007 or 2006, 200x...). Are they pulling older, copper pennies out of circulation or what's going on? ??? I know most of us here check our change so I figured someone might know something about it.


...i did find a 1937 wheatie in the "take a penny" thing the other day at the gas station, replaced it with a shiny new one :icon_pirat:
 

:-\...or maybe it's just in this area? I haven't been getting any older ones though, so I thought it a little weird.
 

Hi Stace! I feel your pain ;D! I search pennies(cents) by the box, and went through a 2 month period where 90% of the boxes I picked up were brand new 2008 :-\.. Just now starting to see the 2008D's make there way this far East. I do not like brand new shiney pennies :'(! Good luck to you,, Gpurs...
