"ONE CENT"

 

It says One Cent and I believe it. It's just too new and NOT in MS condition in my opinion. Sorry to be a "Debbie Downer but it's the truth.

 

They made a lot of these but someone building a set might pay a dollar for one.

 

Gotta look at auction records.
If you were to pay about $40 to get it graded by PCGS, and it were to get a MS65 or MS66, you'd be able to get about $6-$14 of that back.

 

And don't forget the postage and insurance in the TPG cost.

 

Also, don't forget that the values are for Satin Finish only. That means you will need to present the coin in the original government mint set packaging. The OP coin without the sealed packaging is worth ONE CENT.

 

What I posted was from the business strike page.
The satin finish auction records are posted below (and are fewer).

 

I have over 50 rolls of them. I may get a few dollars for each roll. Just too many of them were made.

 

It's fun to pull all four types out of your change and keep them. I had no problem doing so myself a few years ago. Beyond that, your market is people who want that one and are not motivated to look for it themselves. Heck, I got a slabbed one for free at a coin show.

 

Also worth noting I guess, while we're talking about these - the 2009 satin finish bronze cents (as opposed to the copper coated zinc business strikes) are the lowest mintage modern Lincoln cents (along with the 3x 2019-W issues). However, low mintage is relative - the 2009 bronze cents had mintages of 784,614.

 

I might have a couple of those kicking around
ANACs Certified even

 

That is a nice one year only Cent. It's worth a couple of bucks if you can find some one willing to pay for it.
My suggestion that you did not ask for; Put it in a 2x2 flip and enjoy adding to your collection. Find the other two from that 2009 series in similar condition. Repeat with the flips... Post your progress.
Happy collecting!

 

Hers a beautiful toned set of the four 2009 coins. They were issued as a tribute to Lincoln for the bicentennial of his birth and the centennial of the first Lincoln Cent. The four coin set are for:
Lincoln’s north and childhood
Lincoln’s formative years
Lincoln’s professional life and
Lincoln’s Presidency.

 

The year 2009 is the 100th Anniversary of the Lincoln Cent, that's the reason for the specialized, memorialized reverses. The good ones will bring a couple dollars. I have a $25 box of these.

 

Strange I thought it was the 200th birthday of Lincoln

 

As I said in my opening post, issued for the Bicentennial of his birth and the Centennial of the Lincoln Cent first being issued.

 

They're both, actually, the different reverses marking stages in his life.

 

There's 4 total and I have them. They just aren't in this good condition.
