Has anyone else ordered the rolls from the mint? I ordered some and they are "in stock and reserved" but have not shipped out yet. I hear of people selling them for over $50 a set. I hope my order doesn't get cancelled.

I've been asking around at some of the banks in Nashville. No 09's yet. One bank said they were expecting some towards the end of April. My future son-n-law's mother is a bank vp here so I'm going to see if she wouldn't mind checking into getting some for me or at least let me know when and where I can get some.
Everyone's right about tons of coins being cashed in causing the banks to be overloaded and not needing to order from the feds. Although I'm looking forward to the 09's, I am happy about having a lot of coins that were stashed away for years finally coming into circulation. Like Dick said, better opportunities for us collectors to find some good stuff.

It's up to $26 right now. Unbelievable! I usually don't do anything other than Lincolns but I asked my bank yesterday for anything 2009. None to be had.
My daughter found 4 rolls of the 2009-D Lincolns for me so I'll have at least those for now.

Hello all,Been busy lately and haven't been by for a few weeks.Yesterday I finally recieved 3 2009p cents in change.They were the 2nd issue type.Still have not gotten any other denomination or the 1st Lincoln release yet in change.I've seen the US mint issue Lincoln bw 1st type issue sell for upwards of $200  for 1 each pd rolls.It's crazy.Regular rolls can be had from $5-$10.00 each.$8.95 for both rolls from the mint and I thought that was high and didn't get any.What a mistake   .Has anyone found any error new Lincolns yet? That dime ended at $49.02??????

Can someone elaborate on what a 1st issue is? My brother and a friend went to Springfield, IL this week for this event.
http://www.coincollectingnews.org/us-mint-launches-third-lincoln-penny-design-in-springfield-illinois/104711
He is not a coin collector but his friend is. His friend told him the rolls they bought were worth $75 apiece. He also said they waited at the post office to have some special stamp put on them after purchase. I am not familiar with this type of event. If any one is I would appreciate some insights.
My brother is unemployed at the moment and if he thought they were worth what this guy was saying he would probably sell them to make some money.

The best advice might be to get those rolls on ebay right away. The first sellers get moon money but it cools off fast.
