just transferred all of my Lincoln cents to a Dansco 7100. Was wondering why there are so many spaces for 2009 cents?

There are four different varieties, for both the Philadelphia and Denver cents! Birth, Early life, Professional life, and Presidency for both mints... Just do a quick search for 2009 Lincoln Cent designs - you'll get lots of pictures!

Yes at least on purpose. Of course there is the famous 1982 Cents where there are 8 different ones. The 60's and 70's too had a pile of them each. I use Whitman Albums and had to use there blank pages with their press on numers/letters to make titles for all 20 of the 2009's. And with several Albums, really irritating. Quote:a Red Book is highly recommended And that too is a good idea.

The ones everybody (even the album makers) misses are the 1974 large and small date cents.
