First Year 1909 Plain Lincoln Cent & Big Copper Round

Product Description

Featuring an inaugural 1909 issue and a modern one-ounce copper round replica, this affordable and collectible pair joins the past with the present, demonstrating the enduring popularity of the beloved Lincoln cent. While the penny's reverse engraving has been refreshed a number of times in its 115 years of minting, the introductory first year 1909 Lincoln Wheat cent has remained one of the series' most popular issues to this day. The obverse engraving of the large copper round combines the bust of the Great Emancipator with wheat stalks from the original design.
