Lincoln Wheat Penny 1 ounce of copper
Lincoln Wheat Penny 1 oz Copper is a medal inspired by the longest-running circulating coin in U.S. history – the Lincoln cent, first issued in 1909. Designed by Victor D. Brenner, it is one of the icons of American coinage, and its copper interpretation in the form of a 1-ounce .999 round is an attractive and detailed reconstruction of the classic design. It is intended for collectors who appreciate traditional motifs and the timeless symbolism of American history.
The obverse faithfully reproduces the distinctive profile of Abraham Lincoln, with clearly defined facial features and beard. This coin marked the beginning of the era of portraying U.S. presidents on circulating coinage. The round combines early 20th-century classic style with modern minting quality, while the crisp relief enhances the elegance of the design. Together with the patriotic reverse, it forms a cohesive and historically meaningful composition.
Obverse: depicts a right-facing bust of Abraham Lincoln. Above the portrait appears the inscription “E PLURIBUS UNUM”.
Reverse: shows a shield adorned with three stars and outspread eagle wings on both sides. Above the shield waves the American flag. The inscriptions COPPER .999 FINE appear at the top and ONE AVDP OUNCE at the bottom, with USA at the base. The composition symbolises national pride and the strength of America.
The piece is not legal tender and serves exclusively as a collector item. It is packaged in a plastic sleeve or protective pouch, which protects the surface, facilitates storage, and helps preserve its aesthetic qualities for many years.
