23 Responses to Lincoln Penny Design Images for 2009 Circulating Cents



  1. 2009 Lincoln Cents says:

    Interesting choices. A few of them might end up looking diminutive when scaled to the size of a penny.

    Maybe this will spur some more new coin collectors. The entire set will only be four cents!

  2. Edward Stevenson, Jr. says:

    Where doesthe date go?

  3. Nick S. says:

    Where is “In God We Trust”? Did they stick it on the side like they did with the new quarters? Shameful.

  4. Edward Stevenson, Jr. says:

    Wait are theseall reverses?
    Maybe an obverse has the date and motto? Can we look forward to a new bust?
    New collectors? Perhaps. A whole new generation for coin dealers to rob

  5. Don Bessette says:

    Why do some people cry shame before they know something. As the other side remains the same, then the portrait of Lincoln will be capped with In God We Trust as it has been for the last 50 years. And the date is on the Obverse as well. “Liberty” still rules!

  6. Robert Whitehall says:

    They are all beautiful coins. I would love to know just where to buy some. It seems that the Mint will no give out (any) information as to buying rolls or bags.

  7. Frankie says:

    well to me it just looks like Lincolns hair got a little bit higher…all that hair spray!

  8. Lydia says:

    where can I buy them no banks around southern Indiana has them or know when they will or if they will

  9. William J. Comstock says:

    I haven’t seen anyplace where it says the Lincoln Pennies are available in the 2009 Scheduled Products Listing. I also haven’t seen when the Lincoln Dollar and the 4 Lincoln Pennie Mint set/proof sets will be available. Hope you can answer my questions.
    Thank you,

    Sincerely
    William J. Comstock

    Well I have called the US Mint, Dept. of Treasury, and the Fed. Bank in Chicago (for my home area) and no one knows much of anything. The Fed. Bank in Chicago stated to me that they will have to use up or remove the current pennies in circulation and as that happens they will gradually release the new pennies to the banks. Also the guy at the Fed. stated the rolls will likely be mixed, they wont be complete rolls of new pennies. So looks like the people who attended the ceremony last week in Kentucky have some real pieces, thus the $70+ for a roll on ebay. I think for the general public these are going to be tough to come by in full rolls, BU condition from your bank. If anyone does stumble across some and could purchase me a box, contact me at justnmoline@mchsi.com Thanks!!!!

    I have also called numerous banks in my state and the state where I came from. They don’t have them either. I have seen rolls go for over a hundred dollars on e-bay. That is INSANE people. Its a friggen roll of pennies worth .50 cents. a 1909s vdb is worth just as much. Almost as scarce as a 1943 copper penny. Fargetabotit. Full rolls are going to real hard to come by unless you work in a bank that can get them. I am sure these bankers already know what they have. It is a damn shame that you and I can’t get a roll for our children at normal prices, which is .50 cents. I can hardly find 2008 pennies in great condition or in any condition. Please forward any info on these priceless pieces. Its just noncents!!

  12. Chris says:

    I think the new design for the penny is awsome i can’t what to have one.

  13. manny says:

    I want the pennies so bad, they dont have it in Littleton coin, wher i buy my coins for my collection… I cant find the 2009 quarters either. I ordered the 2009 indian girl dollar coin but it didnt come and i waited for it for 2 months now… Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

  14. Mary says:

    The coins are circulating. One came across my desk today, and I am
    in Mississippi. Be patient people. and $100 on ebay? Good grief

  15. Terri says:

    I have a log cabin one. It feels a tad lighter than the other ones. Does anyone know what the RM on the left and JL on the right in the grass stand for? The artists?

  16. Tyler says:

    i have a book one

  17. John says:

    Does anyone know if the new pennies are being produced by the Denver and Philadelphia mints. I got my first penny today and it doesn’t have a mint mark but a dash where the mint mark is suppose to be. I wish more information would come out when they produce new coins.

  18. Jeff says:

    Non mint mark pennies come from Philadelphia.

  19. emily says:

    I discovered a 2009 log cabin penny in my wallet. It definitely feels lighter than a 2007 penny I have. Is this part of the stimulus package? Haha..saving money by putting even less copper in the pennies.

  20. mackenzie says:

    I love the new penny design.It shows the life and purpose of Lincoln’s long lasting life.

  22. Vince says:

    Perhaps “separation of church & state” finally took effect!

  23. paulette says:

    iwas relly excited about finding one of the new pennies. i hpoe i can collect the others and do a unit on Lincoln with my first grade class.

    My brother-in-law said things must really be bad to make Pres. Lincoln stand up to take notice. HA-HA
