karenh: redesignrelated: On President’s Day we found it fitting to take another look at the upcoming redesign of the Abraham Lincoln One-Cent coin. In 2009, the United States Mint is minting and issuing four different one-cent coins in recognition of the bicentennial of President Abraham Lincoln’s birth and the 100th anniversary of the first issuance of the Lincoln cent.
