Lincoln Wheat Backs were minted from 1909 - 1959. These coins had the great wheat penny back design until 1959, then it was changed over to the memorial reverse. There are many varieties such as the 1909 VDB cents, the steel cents during WWII, the 1982 zinc composite coins as well as the Lincoln Bi-centennial coins from 2009. The Lincoln Cent was made of 95% copper and 5% zinc and tin until 1962 with the exception of the steel cents during the war. Then the composition changed to a 95% copper and 5% zinc combination in 1962 and in 1982 it changed once again to 97.5% zinc and 2.5% copper where it remains today. The diameter of the Lincoln Cent is 19mm.

I collect these for myself and my daughter. I look forward to getting the new one each year. This site, U. S. State Quarters, has been the most reliable source to do this. Their cost and service is dependable. This makes my annual search easy.

Very Grateful Nun
I work at a Convent and one of the Sisters(Nuns) came to me and asked if I could "keep my eye out" for a few State quarters to complete her longtime collection. As if I would somehow be coming across a Samoa Territory, North Mariana Island Quarter any time soon. A quick search brought me to your company. Quick order, so quick I made a mistake that you quickly corrected for me. The shipment came quickly and She was DELIGHTED! Thank you so much. In life, it is the little things we do for people that mean the most. You allowed me to do the impossible for our Sister. She is forever grateful. Thanks Joe Assante
