Lincoln Cent statistics.
There have been 140 wheat cents minted from 1909 - 1958. These include Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco mints of all years.
From 1959-2008 there have been 109 different Lincoln Memorial Cents minted.
So there has been a total of 249 different Lincoln Cents minted from 1909-2008.
In 2009 there will be 4 commemorative Lincoln Cents, then starting with 2010 there will be a new reverse so 2008 is the end of the Lincoln Memorials.
Out of these 249 Lincoln Cents I have 221, and will get 11 of my missing 28 cents on the next trip to the coin shop (they are all early Wheat cents). The final 17 are the "costly" ones which will appear in due time.
Does anyone have ALL 249?
