End of an Era: The Final Chapter for the Lincoln Penny
With the announcement that the government has put in its final order of penny blanks, the rush is on for collectors to get their Penny Collections in order as demand skyrockets. Now, this remarkable collection captures 116 years of the Lincoln Penny’s history, from the Industrial Age through two world wars, economic triumph, and national renewal.
From 1909 to 2025, the Lincoln cent has been witness to every major moment in our nation's journey. The 1943 steel penny reminds us of wartime sacrifice when copper was desperately needed for ammunition. The shell-case pennies of 1944-1946 were literally forged from victory, crafted from recovered military brass. The 2009 bicentennial designs celebrated Lincoln's legacy during America's economic recovery. And 1982 marked the end of pennies being minted for circulation in copper. You’ll mark all these historical milestones – and more!
This magnificent 20-coin portfolio spans significant design changes and includes coins from every decade of issue to date — including the 2025 issue, which are likely the final US Pennies ever to be minted. The coins in this collection range from Brilliant Uncirculated to Very Good condition and come in a deluxe display with a Certificate of Authenticity. Don't let this piece of American history slip away, order now!
