Sets of circulated Lincoln Memorial cents mostly have a higher sentimental value than retail value and most do not have all the coins that were issued for circulation such as the large and small date coins of 1960 or all 7 1982 coins. Sets that do have these coins are valued at $5.00-$8.00 depending on the condition of the coins. Sets of brilliant uncirculated Memorial cents are on the market for under $30.00
it depends on the date and the mint mark. Lincoln pennies were minted 1909~now. Wheat pennies 1909~1958. Lincoln memorial pennies 1959~2008. Lincoln bicentennial pennies 2009 (4 designs), Lincoln union shield pennies 2010~ .
The Royal Mint advises that in 2008, 180,600,000 Pennies of the old (Ironside) design were minted and, 386,830,000 Pennies of the new (Dent) design were minted. A total of 567,430,000 Pennies for 2008.
If you take another look at that coin, you'll see that it also says 2008, which is the year it was minted. 1959 is the year Hawaii became a state. It's worth 25 cents.
If one side has a portrait of George Washington, and the other side says both 1959 and 2008, then it's simply a common Alaska state quarter, worth 25 cents.
1960 pennies are worth more. Wrong!.... 2008 are worth more... its about quantity not YEAR Clever. But I would point out that the 1990 pennies would probably be worth the most due to the fact that they contain more copper =)
The newer Canadian pennies are magnetic . Ex. 2007 and 2008 pennies are magnetic . the older pennies are not Ex. 1989.
20 grams if they are present day pennies. more if they are older.
Fidel Castro ruled Cuba though 1959 to 2008.
It depends on the year and condition. I'm assuming you mean the newer Lincoln memorial cents. 1959 to 2008 Note: the wheat back cents 1958 and older generally bring a premium regardless of the year made. Pennies made before 1982 and even some 1982's are 95% copper. So with the price of copper being around $3 a pound and about 150 pre 1982 pennies to make a pound, you can see that the copper content is worth more than the face value of the pennies. Please note: it is currently illegal to melt US coins! This may change in the future. There is a lot of free information online about pennies. You can easily distinguish the difference between the copper and zinc pennies by simply dropping them on a hard surface such as a table top and listen to the sound they make. The copper will have a tink or ring to it and the zinc will sound flat.
The value of the Lincoln Memorial Cents minted from 1959 through 2008 in brilliant uncirculated condition is worth approximately 15.00 for the business minted coins from Philadelphia, Denver, And San Francisco... If you also have all of the proof coins issued from 1968 through 2008 you could probably add another 75.00 to 125.00 more in value to the collection... In 2009 the Lincoln Cents depicted 4 different reverses for the life of Abraham Lincoln...and in 2010 the Lincoln Cents changed their reverse to a Shield...and that will be continued until further notice...
Through 2004, it would amount to approximately $16,000.00 http://cost.jsc.nasa.gov/inflateCPI.html
