According to the US Treasury's web site, the first Lincoln Head penny was introduced August 2, 1909, replacing the Indian Head penny. It was the first coin to feature a real person and a president. It was in production until February 12, 1959 when it was replaced by the Lincoln Memorial Building in honor of President Lincoln's 150th birthday.
