Finally found first 2017 coin in change

Well it took almost 6 months into the year, but my grandson finally received a 2017 coin as change.  A 2017-D Jefferson Nickel.  He is so happy about it, for the time being it has erased those daily disappointed non-find days.  The coin we found is certainly not the one pictured.  The one he received has the typical bag marks, but we will gladly take it and look forward to the next 2017 coin whatever it may be.
