New 2009 penny design,I did not know until,,,

[flash5153]

I just found one while counting my clad.(and 3 wheats) After I seen it I looked it up on the web. I see they have several new designs coming up.

I did not know this until just now. I think they should just quit making them all together. Here's a pic of the one I have and a link to look at the rest if you like. (maybe I'm the only one that didnt know)

Yes they started making them this year and there will be several "scenes" on the coins planned to be issued.

On that link above if you go to "circulating coins" and under that is another link" 2009 lincoln bicentenial one cent program" It shows them all there.
How long have they been out?? I just seen one yesterday,,,, hmmm,,, I must be slacking. I was surprized really.

I think they just came out this past summer or early spring (actually since Lincoln's birthdate?). I was reading about them in one of the coin mags I get.
