<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RonSanderson, post: 2666086, member: 77413&quot;]This is the 50th year of issue for the Lincoln cent, and the last year of the wheat reverse. The design was introduced on the centennial of his birth, it would be replaced with the Lincoln memorial in 1959 in honor of the 150th anniversary, and with a series of four new reverse patterns in 2009 for the 200th anniversary. </p><p><br /></p><p>By this time a number of stylistic changes had occurred along the way. The numeral 5, for instance, changed from a small rounded format to a long-tailed version. The date is bigger overall. The carefully sculpted beard and hair had long since worn off the master hubs. The proof-like rims of this 1915 also gave way to narrower ones.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]592543[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>1958 Proof</b></p><p><b>[ATTACH=full]592538[/ATTACH] </b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>1958 Business strikes</b></p><p>[ATTACH=full]592540[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]592544[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
