It appears that due to high demand for the two roll set of Lincoln Cents bearing the log cabin design, the coins have have already sold out!
The sets (which contained $1.00 face value in pennies) were priced at $8.95 plus $4.95 shipping and handling (a price which is well in line with other numismatic issues from the Mint). They were also subject to a five set per household limit. Despite these obstacles the coins sold out less than two weeks after their March 13, 2009 release.
With such a high demand for the Bicentennial Cents already having been demonstrated, I hope that the Mint will consider increasing production for the other three penny designs set to be released later in the year.
Just My Two Cents,
