The Artistry Behind the Coin

Obverse: The familiar profile of Abraham Lincoln graces the obverse, a design that has appeared on the penny since 1909. Victor David Brenner's iconic portrait captures Lincoln's dignified bearing and resolute character, making this one of the most recognized images in American numismatics. The inscriptions "IN GOD WE TRUST," "LIBERTY," and the year "2025" frame this enduring tribute to our 16th President.

Reverse: The Union Shield dominates the reverse, designed by Lyndall Bass to commemorate Lincoln's preservation of the United States during the Civil War. The shield's vertical lines represent the states unified under one federal government, while a horizontal bar across the top symbolizes Congress binding the nation together. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "ONE CENT" complete this powerful design, along with the Latin motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM" (Out of Many, One).

Why Collectors Choose This Set

The Lincoln Shield Cent represents a significant chapter in American coinage history, introduced in 2010 to mark the bicentennial of Lincoln's birth. Acquiring both mint marks from a single year allows collectors to complete their date sets efficiently while ensuring matched quality and condition. These uncirculated examples offer superior eye appeal compared to circulation finds, with sharp strikes and unblemished surfaces that showcase the design's full detail. Whether you're building a comprehensive Lincoln cent collection or simply preserving a piece of 2025 for future generations, this affordable set delivers both historical significance and numismatic value.
