Description

The 2026 (P) Lincoln Shield Cent was struck at the Philadelphia Mint as a cent in the Semiquincentennial Circulating Coins 2026 series. The obverse features Abraham Lincoln facing right and the reverse displays a Union shield with a scroll banner reading ONE CENT, symbolizing Lincoln's preservation of the Union. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. The Philadelphia Mint, America's oldest coin-making facility, has struck coins continuously since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $0 to $0 depending on grade and condition. Struck in copper plated zinc, weighing 2.5 grams, 19.05 mm in diameter, with a plain edge.
