1991-S Lincoln Cent Proof

Product Description

The first Lincoln cent was issued in 1909 for the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth. The Lincoln penny is still in production, making it the longest running coin series in U.S. history. This popular coin, featuring a most favored president, is one of the world's most collected. Since this 1991 San Francisco proof issue was only included as part of the year's complete proof sets, some sets had to broken up to provide issues for collectors building complete date and mint sets. The Lincoln memorial reverse design was replaced by a shield engraving in 2010.
