Item Description
Victor D. Brenner, designed this cent, which was issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth. The designer's initials (V.D.B.) appear on the reverse of a limited quantity of cents of 1909. Lincoln, Wheat Ears Reverse (1909-1958)
The Lincoln type was the first cent to have the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. The reverse was changed to the Lincoln Memorial design in 1959.
Due to copper shortage during the critical war year 1943, the Treasury used zinc-coated steel to make cents. Although no bronze cents were officially issued that year, a few specimens struck on bronze or silver planchets by error are known to exist.
