To add to my already staggering geekiness, I also collect coins. The US States Quarters wrapped up last year and they’ve added two new programs plus the ongoing Presidential $1 Coins program.
Presidential $1 Coins
Started in 2007. I’m 4 coins behind! Yikes! It was much easier to stay up to date when I was at the bank every other week for Crescent Moon!
Lincoln Bicentennial Pennies 2009
There will be four new pennies this year to celebrate Lincoln’s life.
2009 US Territories $1 Coins
D.C., Puerto Rico, Guam, Samoa and Mariana Islands coins.
In 2010 there will be a America the Beautiful National Parks Quarters program starting up, too.
Guess I need to get to the bank and beg for $1 coins before I get even more behind!
Also, in case you didn’t know, I’m a FREAK for pressed pennies. If you want to make my day, bring me a pressed penny from somewhere unique! :-)
