1942 (nickel)
1946

1954-S
1 Canadian nickel
1 UK 20 Pence = at current exchange rate that's $.29 cents

In the Cents I found:
1941-S
1942
1945
1946-S
1951-D
1955-D
1956-D
2009-D x4
about 23 S-mint memorials between 1968-74. I save them just because.

Not bad, but I've done better both on the wheatie count and also by finding war nickels. Hopefully I'll get more change today. Thanks for reading.

Neat you found a few 2009s... they are hard to come by in VA. Last time I was at the local coin shop, the old man was telling me that because of the economy, more people are turning in coins to banks. Therefor banks are not getting as much new coinage... so the Terriroty Quarters and log cabin pennies are really tough to get in some places.

Nice CRH'ing!

I'd been asking my bank since February if they had received fresh rolls of the 2009 Cabin cents yet, and they always said no. A friend gave me my first one from his change at a gas station. My girlfriend came up on number two in her change. The four I found were the first 4 that I've personally received, but I had to go through $25 of pennies to find them! Most people are a little more aware of their coins than 10 years ago due to the quarters and nickels, so it seems that these cabin cents aren't circulating much.

I have not seen any of the new cents in circulation yet.... When I lived in Seattle, the new coins always showed up early... RickO

I too have been wondering when the '09 Pennies would show up?!? I have not seen any yet up here.
