Lincolns A Keeper

The circulating version of these coins will use the same standard inscriptions and the same metal content as have been used recently. A special version of these coins for collectors will also be made. The coins will look the same, but will contain the metals that were used in the original 1909 cent (95 percent copper, 5 percent tin and zinc) instead of the modern cent's mix (2.5 percent copper, the rest zinc).

After the 2009 Lincoln Bicentennial One Cent Program ends, the design on the back of the one-cent coin will represent the unity of the states, which President Lincoln worked so hard to restore and preserve. Were it says that the coins will look the same that tells me that they will be P,D,or plain plus the silver dollar no proof cents In the special 5 coin set but I could be wrong Heres the link from the mints web site on it! http://www.usmint.gov/KIDS/coinnews/cents/
