Lincoln Memorial

Martin Luther King Jr. wanted everyone to be equal. He gave the speech there because Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves. And the speech is "I have a dream."

1922

It's part of a so-called "collectible" set of cents, each stamped with an outline of one of the states. They're made privately by altering genuine pennies. Coin collectors consider them to be damaged coins so they have no value to a numismatist.

In addition to that, go downstairs to the small museum, and learn about building the memorial. It was made with Marble from Colorado. The Memorial has also been the site of many famous political events. Go stand at the top of the steps, find the marker, and stand where Dr. Martin Luther King stood when he made the "I have a dream" speech. Standing at the top of the steps is also a great spot to take photos of the mall, the reflecting pool, Washington Monument, and the Capitol. Then walk over to the side and visit the Vietnam and Korean War memorials.

This is called an off-center strike. It happens when a coin blank doesn't land squarely in the press and the dies come together part-way off center.

Given the number of cents minted at high speed every year, this error happens more often than you might think, so this error is usually only worth a couple of dollars.

The Kennedy Memorial located in Washington D.C., has a flat top roof. The significance of this roof top is that a flat top roof is used when a president has had a premature death, such as an assassination. The Lincoln Memorial also has one as well.

The Lincoln Memorial serves to commemorate US President Abraham Lincoln. He is credited with preserving the country when it was at its weakest and freeing the slaves, making him one of the most beloved of the past presidents.

No. The Lincoln Memorial and Jefferson Memorial are not right next to one another. However, they are walking distance.
