Lincoln Commemorative (200) 1 cent coin 2009. (xf) Type 1 (P)

Lincoln dvjestogodišnji centi
Godine 2009. američke kovnice novca izradile su četiri posebna dizajna penija za proslavu 200. rođendana Abrahama Lincolna.
Bila je to i 100. godišnjica Lincoln penija, koji je kovnica prvi put izradila 1909. godine.

Slika Lincolna ostala je na aversu (glavama) sva četiri centa u novom programu.
Naličje (repovi) uključivalo je četiri različita dizajna iz važnih faza Lincolnova života, od njegova rođenja pa sve do vremena kada je bio predsjednik.

Nakon što je program završio, naličje penija promijenilo se u trenutni dizajn "Union Shield".
Predstavljaju jedinstvo Sjedinjenih država, na čijem je obnavljanju i očuvanju predsjednik Lincoln toliko radio, cak i ratovao.

Lincoln Bicentennial Cents
In 2009, the U.S. Mint made four special penny designs to celebrate Abraham Lincoln’s 200th birthday. It was also the 100th anniversary of the Lincoln penny, which the Mint first made in 1909. The image of Lincoln remained on the obverse (heads) of all four cents in the new program. The reverse (tails) included four different designs from important phases of Lincoln’s life, from his birth all the way to when he was president.

After the program ended, the reverse of the penny changed to the current “Union Shield” design. It represents the unity of the states, which President Lincoln worked so hard to restore and preserve.
