Why are the 2009 Lincolns going to be future key date coins?

I think the mintages are a lot lower(although still plentiful) than that of the Memorial Cents and Shield Cents. And only a 1 year issue. Either way, they will only be valuable in high grades like that of which the OP posted. IMO of course  |

Well then, it's a good thing I have some boxes from the US mint.

Nice buy. Nothing like getting a slabbed PF69 for 4.70 each. Probably cost more than that to have them graded. Now you can start your own registry set on the NGC site. edgman   |

I still can't figure why those copper cents never caught on...four unique reverse designs...95% copper content which is unique for a modern cent...low mintage..WAY below normal for a modern cent (771 thousand vs. 300 million of the regular 2009 cents)
..and the sets can still be bought for around or below the original Mint price...

I wonder what the 3009 ones will look like? 3009? I think we have to work through some more "end of the world" scenarios before we consider what cents will look like in 3009. :) Oh and the fact that currency will not be physical at that point if we are still around to use money. Man... 1000 years into the future... will there even be money or will it be the money-less utopian world that Gene Roddenberry envisioned? I need to have another glass of scotch and then I'll get back to you on that. Hmmm.... |
