 I just scored all 4 of the 2009 Lincoln Cent proofs graded NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo for an average cost of $4.70 each on ebay!! I am a happy man this morning. I'll get some pics up as soon as they arrive.

Nice pickup! I used to save everyone regardless of grade. I thought they would be keys. Then for whatever reason, I got rid of them. Wish I hadn't.

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   |

Probably cost more than that to have them graded. Almost certainly. I suppose the seller is hedging and hoping to recoup those losses from the 70s. |

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...

Why are the 2009 Lincolns going to be future key date coins? Only because by 3009 most will have been put back into circulation from the millions and millions now being hoarded. I wonder what the 3009 ones will look like? |
