2009D Lincoln pennies LP3 UNC/BU, Denver mint, box 50 rolls (2,500 pennies)

Description: Our 16th President Abraham Lincoln was born in 1809 and he first appeared on the penny in 1909, commemorating his100th birthday. In 2009, four major aspects of his life were featured on four different penny reverses of that year, representing career steppingstones in his life. The 3rd design being offered in this listing is sometimes referred to as "LP3". It depicts Lincoln as a young professional standing in front of the old Illinois state capitol building in Springfield. It represented a period in Lincoln's life before he was elected President. This version is one of only two USA penny issues which ever showed Lincoln on both the front AND back. (The other is the 2009 LP2 penny.) Here are offered Denver mintage 50 uncirculated & unopened NF String tightly wrapped rolls of 50 pennies per roll, 2,500 BU business strike pennies in all. Only the box was opened to verify contents. The buyer will receive precisely what is shown. The year 2009 was unique in another way: It was the lowest year's mintage quantity of pennies of the twenty-first century to date. Add to that, the year was split with 4 different designs, making 2009 pennies even more coveted. To illustrate the unique limited numbers, there were only 336 million 2009 Denver LP3 business strike pennies minted, compared to nearly 5.5 billion pennies in 2008, and over 4 billion in 2010. Reportedly, the current year 2022 will be the last year of Lincoln penny mintages. The penny will soon disappear. That could likely increase interest in coin collecting and values, especially for the unique 2009 issues like this rare offering of 13 year old uncirculated & unopened rolls. As this is being written, there are no other Denver LP3 complete boxes listed for sale. USPS PRIORITY SHIPPING - INSURED & SIGNATURE REQUIREDDELIVERS IN 2-5 DAYS
