Prepare for a touch of nostalgia and numismatic charm with the Field Notes “Lucky” Edition, the 70th quarterly limited release from the masters of American-made pocket notebooks. This Spring, Field Notes pays a sophisticated, tactile salute to the noble American penny—a coin that has carried our history in its copper hues for generations.

The “Lucky” Edition is more than a notebook; it is a curated exploration of time, wear, and the enduring legacy of the cent, captured through exquisite papercraft and metallic detailing.

 Signature Features: The Shades of Currency

The “Lucky” Edition honors the penny’s journey by mimicking the three distinct shades a copper coin takes on as it ages and circulates through the world.

• Three Iconic Cover Stocks: Each 3-pack features a trio of Mohawk Mosaic 100-lb covers:

  • “Rosewood”: Representing the bright, orangeish-pink luster of a freshly minted coin.

  • “Mocha”: Capturing the deep, earthy brown of a well-worn penny that has traveled through countless hands.

  • “Mint”: A striking oxidized green, mimicking the beautiful patina that copper develops over decades of exposure.

• Metallic Copper Accents: The front covers are elegantly stamped with metallic copper foil, while the spines are bound with matching copper staples, creating a cohesive, high-end metallic aesthetic.

• Historic Embossing: In a stunning display of detail, the back of each cover is embossed with one of the penny’s three historic reverse designs: the Stalks of Wheat, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Great Seal.

• Specialized Interior Paper: Inside, you'll find 48 pages of 60#T Domtar Cougar Natural paper. The pages are ruled in copper ink and feature faint mint ledger columns—perfect for totaling up spare change, creating checklists, or simply providing a unique structure for your daily notes.
