Description

The 2009 (P) Lincoln Cent - Presidency is a cent produced at the Philadelphia Mint as part of the Lincoln Bicentennial Cents 2009 series. The U.S. Mint produced 129.6 million examples, making this the lowest mintage among 8 mint variants, representing only 6% of total production. The obverse features Abraham Lincoln facing right and the reverse displays four different designs released throughout 2009, each representing a stage of Lincoln's life. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Struck at the original U.S. Mint facility, in continuous operation since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $0 to $1 depending on grade and condition. Struck in copper-plated zinc, weighing 2.5 grams, 19 mm in diameter, with a plain edge. Cataloged as PCGS #407868.
