No. The Lincoln wheat cent was introduced in 1909. From 1858-1908, there was the Indian Head cent. Before that was the Flying Eagle cent, which was only minted between 1856-58. Prior to the small cent was the large cent, which was about the size of a modern small dollar coin. Those were made from 1793-1857.
