Found in circulation. Lincoln was the 16th President and I now have 16 2009 special edition Pennies. Rare but not necessary valuable unless in a full set, which as you can see I have. The 4th in the series, the Half-built Capitol dome, as it was at the time of Lincoln's Inauguration in 1861, unfortunately I have only one example, but fortunately it is in excellent condition, and makes a handsome quartet full set.
The rest of the collection is a dirty dozen.
I could not part with the full set for less than $5, personally. Do you have a similar collection and if so, is the ratio of the 4 similar to mine?

I hardly ever find the 2009 pennies in circulation. I gave up trying a few years ago and just bought BU's in sets.

Nice hunting. Finding the 2009 Lincoln Cents in circulation in that condition now is pretty spectacular!

Nice find but they are not rare. They are a lower mintage though.

My last couple coin hunts somewhat uneventful save finding 2009 P Capitol building in exquisite BU condition. It completed my 2nd penny collection Whitman book III. So search was not a total loss.

Congrats on your set. The capitol cent is the hardest to find in circulation.

Thanks! I'm really proud of them. When I find another Capitol and have a second set I will post it.

Pretty set. It's always a good feeling when a set is finely complete.

Check with your local coin shop if they have any uncirculated ones in their change drawer, I got 2 uncirculated capitol building cents as change once from my LCS.

Nice! As others have said, they are scarce in circulation, especially the Presidency issue.
