About this product

Product Information

You can add a 1926-D Lincoln Wheat Penny to your coin collection. These coins are 95 percent copper, 5 percent tin, and 5 percent zinc. These coins have a face value of one cent, but in good condition, the coin can be worth between $1.75 to $25. The classic Wheat Penny designed by Victor D. Brenner was the replacement for the Indian Head Penny and the first mintage of the Lincoln Wheat Penny took place in 1909 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birthday. The obverse or "heads" side features a right facing, full side portrait of President Lincoln with the word liberty inscribed at the nape of his neck, "In God We Trust" above his hairline, and the mint year just above his chest. There are two stalks of wheat on the reverse side that encircle the coin’s denomination of one cent with the Latin phrase, "E Pluribus Unum," which means, "Out of Many, One" at the top, and the inscription on the bottom reads, "United States of America." Only the 1909 penny had the engraver’s initials, V.D.B, on the underside edge of the coin’s reverse side. The U.S. Denver Mint produced 28,020,000 Lincoln Wheat, bronze composite, 19 mm, 3.11 gram pennies in 1926. You can find the box-like letter "D" mintmark just below the mintage year on the one cent piece. A total of 157,000,000 Lincoln Wheat Pennies were minted that year. This includes the 4,550,000 of the 1926-S which were minted at the U.S. Mint in San Francisco. The mintmark is the differentiation between the 1926-D and the 1926-S. The Wheat Penny can be unique because Brenner didn’t design matching silver coins, such as nickels, dimes, quarters, and half-dollars, only pennies. Dealers and collectors use the grading services of the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) and the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC). Grades depend on the year, metal type, and condition. Precious metals such as gold and silver carry the most value, followed by the mint year, and the state of the coin. If you can still read the fine details on the one cent piece, it’s worth more than a similar, smooth and worn down coin with no visible detail. Lincoln Wheat Coins are either in good, fine, or extremely fine conditions. The grade for one of these coins needs to be extremely fine for the most value. You can add the unique 1926-D Lincoln Wheat Penny as a starter coin or hold it alongside silver Barber nickels, dimes, quarters, half dollars, and other silver and gold coins of considerable worth. For enthusiasts of rare coins, this penny can be an ideal addition to any collection.

Another one bites the dust
Been filling in my coin book, and for some reason, this penny was hard to get. I'm not the only one filling up a penny book, obviously! Lost a few auctions before winning this one, and I was a little gleeful pressing this one in the 1926 D spot. Finally! I got one of you! Getting these pennies is like treasure hunting, even though there's lots of them on an auction website, it's still fun to get one to complete your set. The one I won was in good shape and had clarity. Good hunting if you're filling a penny book too.
