The Lincoln Wheat Penny, first minted in 1909, holds a cherished place in American history as the first U.S. coin to feature a real person—Abraham Lincoln—on its obverse. Designed by Victor David Brenner to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Lincoln’s birth, this iconic coin replaced the Indian Head cent and became an enduring symbol of American heritage.

The reverse of the penny features two wheat stalks, signifying prosperity and agricultural abundance, earning it the nickname "Wheat Penny." Struck until 1958, these pennies were minted in Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco, making them a favorite among collectors for their variety and historical significance.
