The Lincoln Penny was first minted in 1909, and until 1958 it featured the legendary “wheat ears” design on the back. Now you can relive the “good old days” with a full pound of these classic coins… including a first-year 1909 coin and coins from the 1910’s, 1920’s, 1930’s, 1940’s, and 1950’s. They have been out of issue for nearly half a century, and the oldest coins are almost 100 years old. Hours of fun for new and experienced collectors alike!
