July 4th has come and gone heralding in the traditional pastimes of swimming, vacations, yard work, sipping lemonade, and of course fishing :)
Not much time for coins but somehow as collectors we still sneak in a little time here and there. For me it was circulating coinage. To kick-off the month I was happy to get my first 2009 coins in some change, a dime and a new Lincoln penny.
Typically in my area, new coinage usually starts to circulate around May so it's about 2 months off of the normal cycle. Considering the recent coin stoppage of nickels & dimes, I was pleasantly surprised with the dime. Though not ultra rare I didn't expect to find one so quick. With summer upon us I'll let this little ten cent piece find be the pride of my collection for a month or so.
Ahhh summertime, it's amazing how little things just make your day :)))
