<p>[QUOTE=&quot;grizz, post: 515830, member: 8722&quot;]The new one-cent reverse designs will be issued at approximately three-month intervals throughout 2009. The Secretary of the Treasury approved the designs for the coins after consultation with the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission and the Commission of Fine Arts, and after review by the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reverse inscriptions will continue to include &quot;United States of America,&quot; &quot;E Pluribus Unum&quot; and &quot;One Cent.&quot; And the four 2009 Abraham Lincoln one-cent coins will maintain the same metal content (2.5% copper, balance zinc) and other specifications as the current one-cent coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>These coins will be issued for circulation in quantities to meet the demands of commerce. In addition, the Secretary of the Treasury shall mint and issue numismatic one-cent coins in 2009 with the exact metallic content as contained in the 1909 one-cent coin (95% copper, 5% tin and zinc). These numismatic versions will be included in the United States Mint’s annual product offerings.</p><p><br /></p><p>At the conclusion of the 2009 Lincoln Bicentennial One-Cent Program, the 2010 (and beyond) one-cent coin will feature a reverse design that will be emblematic of President Lincoln&#039;s preservation of the United States of America as a single and united country.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
