Lincoln. Abraham Lincoln, 16th president of the United States.

It is 87 years old. It was dedicated on May 30 1922 by William Howard Taft, former President and Chief Justice.

If it's a genuine flip-over double strike error, it could be worth $50 to $100 or more. If it's something that some person did to the coin after it left the mint, it's worthless.

Please look at the building on the back of the coin. It's an image of the Lincoln Memorial. If you have ever been there or seen a close-up picture, you'll see that there is an enormous statue of Mr. Lincoln seated in the center of the monument. The small image in the center of the coin is an attempt to represent that same statue.

As President, Abraham Lincoln was 6 feet, 4 inches tall, which is 76 inches.

Worth a penny, unless uncirculated or proof. Some collector might buy it for more, though. As of mid-2009 there have been no reports of "mule" cents dated 2009 but carrying the Memorial reverse. However many 2009 cents are still in bank vaults because demand for coins is down so if any were accidentally struck they may not have reached circulation. You'll need to have the coin authenticated by a dealer or appraiser who's familiar with errors. It could also be a fake coin made using the same machining techniques that produce all those "rare" magician's coins with 2 tails or 2 heads.

How Lincoln was a great president and he ended slavery

There are 58 steps leading up to the Lincoln Memorial in Washinton D.C. Two of the steps represent the terms of he president, and the other 56 steps are from the age Lincoln was when he died.

My son counted 87 from the reflection pool, which equals 4scores and 7yrs at least that's what i think.

The Lincoln Memorial is located in Washington DC, the US Capital. It is in West Potomac Park. The Potomac River is behind the Memorial.

It's just a penny, spend it.

While not written, the riddle of what is on the back of the Jefferson Memorial statue is stated by the objects seen there: the items there are corn, tobacco leaves and books.

They represent items that were very significant in his life.

Chester A. Arthur was U.S. President on Saturday, December 6, 1884, the day on which the Washington Monument was completed. Chester Arthur was the 21st U.S. President, in office from September 19, 1881 to March 4, 1885.

The only coin featuring the Lincoln Memorial is the cent from 1959 to today, so I don't know exactly what your set consists of. A complete set from 1959 - 2008 would only bring $5 or $6 if all the coins were picked from circulation.

To visit it is an experience and reminder of our history. I am not sure what you mean by tribute, but it is a place that reflects the greatness of Lincoln and the problems he faced as president. It is worth a visit.

Unity and democracy

There are 26 States listed; 15 across the top, and 11 listed above the columns. They are: Arkansas, Michigan, Florida, Texas, Iowa, Wisconsin, California, Minnesota, Oregon, Kansas, West Virginia, Nevada, Nebraska, Colorado, North Dakota, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jeresey, Georgia, Connecticut, Massachussets, Maryland, New Hampshire, Virginia, New York and Carolinas.

If you look at the Lincoln memorial as a whole, it is grandiose, almost palatial in it's design and construction. The statue of Lincoln seated in the chair is massive, awe inspiring and classical in it's portrayal of the martyred president. You could not build something so massive and impressive and only have a few steps leading up to it. The steps are long and drawn outward, causing the individual rising up the steps to linger longer and focus on the majesty of the memorial. I think it quite effective.
