The Lincoln Log Cabin Penny Is Still Popular With Coin Collectors
The Lincoln Log Cabin penny is sought after by coin collectors and is especially treasured in uncirculated grades and proof condition.
The U.S. Mint struck the 2009 Lincoln Log Cabin penny (and the other 3 cent designs that year) in 2 different metal compositions:
* The usual copper-coated zinc Lincoln cents were made for circulation in 2009.
* 2009 Lincoln cents made for mint sets and proof sets were made from a 95% copper, 5% tin and zinc composition -- the same metal combination originally used for Lincoln cents when they were first struck in 1909.
