I got a 1923-D penny in my change at the gas station yesterday.

Have another look, it's not a D penny if it was minted in 1923... It's probably a worn date 1928, if the mint mark is indeed a D. No pennies were minted in Denver in 1923.

It is pretty worn. I'll have to find my magnifying glass and take another look.

It's actually a 1926-D. Still, pretty cool that a coin could remain in circulation for 92 years.
