The obverse features Abraham Lincoln facing right, while the reverse displays a humble log cabin similar to the one in which Lincoln was born in 1809 in Kentucky, symbolizing frontier individualism. Struck in 95% copper, 5% tin and zinc, weighing 3.11 grams, 19.05 mm in diameter, with a plain edge. Cataloged as PCGS #407246. The 2009 Lincoln Bicentennial Cents commemorated the 200th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth with four rotating reverse designs: Birth and Early Childhood (log cabin), Formative Years (Lincoln reading on a log), Professional Life (Lincoln at the Illinois State Capitol), and Presidency (the half-completed U.S. Capitol dome).
