2020 COINS FIRST TO FIND

Postby TXSTARFIRE » Sat Feb 08, 2020 7:54 am

The 2020 coins have arrived! I enjoy seeing where and when each coin has been found first, so I started a new thread for 2020. Post where and when you find them and I will try to put date and finder in this first post. If you don't mind it might be interesting to know what city or at least what part of the country the coin was found in.

Thanks everyone!

Once again some one found a 2020 coin before I got the 2020 first to find thread up. Congratulations to thecrazyone for the first reported 2020 coin! It was posted on 02-07-2020 in the Members Only General Discussion Forum with a nice photo if you would like to have a look at it. I would have to look back to see if this is a record, but this is pretty early in the year for the new coins to show up. Has anyone ever found a new coin in January?

Thanks!

My earliest, prior to this dime, was March/April.

Now if only someone would tell me this was an error coin :D

On the boards! Was beginning to wonder if I'd go 0-for-February this year but a Vegas casino find took care of that.

The 2nd earliest I've found a new nickel, missing out on the record by just a few days (2/14/15). Now if I can just find the P-mint by April 3rd I'll set a new personal best for both nickels in a year, eclipsing a record that's been standing for 14 years.

I need to take a pic of it, but my friend in Plano, TX got a 2020-D Samoa quarter on 2/15 and sent it to me. I call it the Batman coin :D

2020-D penny. Got it yesterday, but don’t remember where. May have found it on the ground somewhere or gotten back in change. I was surprised to find that nobody had found one before early April.
Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).

Please note that ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- sometimes substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) as well.

Already claimed by Recyclersteve but I got my first 2020-D cent today. Check your change people, no one has claimed the -P nickel yet and the Weir Farm quarter has been out since the beginning of April.

And suddenly my first 2020-D dime today. Methinks the banks have recently received shipments.

I also got a 2020-P Nickel a few weeks ago, I did't realize it was still not found. Pittsburgh, PA
It seems that the majority of my change is newer coin.

Way to go Slaphot! We have a two way tie for most 2020 first to finds, Recyclersteve and Slaphot with three each. Only missing two W quarters to have found all of the business strike coins released so far. Keep looking!
