Designer: Victor D. Brennan (1909), Frank Gasparo (1959), various sculptors and artists for the Lincoln cent Centennial design 5. Edge: Smooth and plain · President Theodore Roosevelt became acquainted with sculptor Victor D. Brennan when he posed for a Panama Canal medal. Brennan suggested to the President that a new cent be issued bearing the likeness of Abraham Lincoln in 1909 (the 100th anniversary of his birth). Brennan had already made a Lincoln sculpture. Intrigued, Roosevelt asked for proposals. When word leaked that a Lincoln cent was in the works, controversy erupted as no real person; living or dead, had appeared on US coinage to date. Roosevelt, who was in his final term as President was undeterred and forged ahead with the concept. The first Lincoln cents were issued August 2, 1909. The Indian head cents were still being struck during the first seven month of 1909, so there are many 1909 cents. The designer’s initials VDB appeared below the date but were removed later in the year as they were found “distracting”. In 1918, the initials were restored as small incuse letters below the shoulder. Americans took warmly to the new coin. · The coin is the longest issue of any US coin. It has four major designs, all based on the reverse of the coin (Lincoln’s right facing likeness on the obverse from the Brennan sculpture is a constant): 1. Wheat Ears Reverse (1909 – 1958) – Designed by Victor D. Brennan as part of the original issue, this reverse featured two wheat stalks with “ONE CENT” and “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” in the center, and the National Motto E. Pluribus UNIM (From many, One) on the top. Grade this coin by the lines on the wheat stalks. 2. Memorial Reverse (1959 – 2008) – Designed by mint assistant engraver Frank Gasparo, (his initials appear to the lower right of the building near the shrubbery) it first appeared in 1959. The large feature of the Lincoln Memorial dominates this reverse with the same three logos as the “wheatie”. In 1982, the composition changed from the copper-zinc alloy to a zinc coin with a thin copper coating. In 1982 also, dies with large and small dates were used at all four mints resulting in twelve variations of this issue. 3. Lincoln Cent Centennial (2009) – There was an artist/sculptor team chosen for each of the four designs in this series. The issues are “Birth and Early Childhood”, “Formative Years”, “Professional Life”, and “Presidency”. This series is sometimes called the “Lincoln Bi-Centennial” as it was issued 100 years after the first Lincoln cent, corresponding to the 200th anniversary of his birth. The Philadelphia and Denver mints each produced satin finished copper coins for mint sets, resulting in 20 different cents from this one year. 4. Shield Reverse (2010 – present) – This reverse was rolled out to replace the one-year centennial designs. The Union Shield, often used during the Civil War years, was brought back to symbolize Lincolns’ efforts to keep the Union as one country during his two terms. It is expected to have a long run. · The West Point mint struck Lincoln cents between 1974 and 1986. These were issued without a mint mark, as the West Point mint was called a bullion repository at this time and was not an official mint until 1988. West point cents from this period are indistinguishable from Philadelphia mint cents except by experts. In 2019, the West Point mint issued a special “W” mint marked Lincoln cent for inclusion in mint sets. · Key dates: 1909 VDB, 1909-S VDB, 1914-D, 1922 D (no D), 1931-S. There are many other collectable and difficult coins in this long series. These are the most coveted. 1914-D cents are prone to fakes typically made by filing a portion of the “4” in 1944-D coins. True 1914-D cents will not have the VDB initials near the shoulder. In 1922, cents were only struck by the Denver mint. Issues with die wear caused “weak D” and “no D” issues to be released. Fakes are common from filing.
