[QUOTE="Harryj, post: 374947, member: 14623"]Almost everyones favorite collectable coins are pennies. In 2009, the US mint is redesigning the Lincoln penny, The obverse will remain the same, hovever the reverse will change. The changes every 3 months in 2009 will be: Lincoln's Birth in Kentucky (1809-1816) Formative Years in Indiana (1816-1830) Professional Life in Illinois (1830-1861) Presidency in Washington, DC (1861-1865) Just a few questions about the new penny and its affects on the Nusmatic World. 1. Is the penny redesign only for a year? Will it be more? Is the 100 year old Lincoln cent going away? Has anyone heard any rumors? 2. Will the new design increase the values of Wheaties and Memorial Cents more than Average. 3. Will the New Cents be "highly Collectable". Should we purchase them and proofs? Penny's are minted in huge quantities now. 4. Maybe most importantly, will key dates of the Lincoln increase more in value than standard? What does everyone think? Thanks[/QUOTE]
