<p>[QUOTE=&quot;whopper64, post: 5568543, member: 101364&quot;]1959 represented the 150th year of Lincoln&#039;s birth.&nbsp; Coin was originated in 1909, 100 years after Lincoln was born.&nbsp; 2009, another change on reverse, represented 200th year anniversary of Lincoln&#039;s birth.&nbsp; If you haven&#039;t figured it out yet, every 50 years, US Mint has major reverse change for zincolns.&nbsp; Hopefully, if the US Mint decides to stop producing zincolns for circulation, they will continue minting for collectors, both biz and proof strikes.&nbsp; Canada missed the opportunity to make some money rather than losing it on regular cent strikes.&nbsp; Since the U.S. has quite a few more collectors and the zincoln is one of the longest running coins (plus apparently holds the record for sheer numbers), it would make sense to continue minting the zincoln for collectors.&nbsp; Unfortunately, the US Mint has not shown consistent intelligence in producing/introducing new/present coins.&nbsp; Anyone collecting the absurd innovations coins?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
