Everyone on here probably knows about the Lincoln Kennedy penny. I mean there are tons out there. Anyways just in the past year I have found in circulation state ?issued? Pennies and was wondering the story behind them and what they are called. I mean if they're are worth a whole penny I would like to find all 50 states if all 50 states were made. I have searched the auction sites and the internet and can't even find these Pennies. So I don't know what they are called or if they were out of a set of some kind. What I mean and to clarify here. Where Kennedy's head is on the Lincoln Kennedy Penny. That is where the shape of a state is stamped into the penny. Stamped the same was like Kennedy's head. I have them from 1975, 1976, 2009, etc. So either someone just grabbed a handful of used Pennies and started stamping them OR they were issued in different years. I have Virginia, South Dakota, and Texas just to name a few. Any information would be wonderful. Thank you for your time![/QUOTE]
