Description

Lincoln Wheat and Memorial Penny Collection (1941-1974) - 82 Coins

Item Details:
This remarkable coin collection features 82 meticulously curated Lincoln Wheat and Memorial pennies, spanning from 1941 to 1974. Housed in a vintage Whitman Publishing coin book, this set captures decades of American history and numismatic craftsmanship. Highlights include the iconic 1943 Steel Pennies, as well as multiple mint marks (Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco) from the World War II and post-war eras. Each coin is carefully slotted and labeled with mintage quantities, offering a unique insight into their production.

Condition:
The coins exhibit a range of conditions typical of circulated pieces from this era, with most retaining clear dates and mint marks. The collection is well-preserved in its original Whitman book, which shows minor signs of aging consistent with its vintage nature.

Special Notes:
This collection is nearly complete, with 82 coins spanning three pages. Notable inclusions are the sought-after 1943 Steel Pennies (P, D, and S) and various low-mintage coins like the 1955-S and 1968-S. A few slots remain unfilled (1970-S, 1972-D, 1972-S, 1973-S), making this an excellent foundation for collectors looking to complete the series.

Provenance:
Lovingly assembled by a private collector over decades, this collection is a testament to the enduring allure of Lincoln pennies as an affordable yet historically significant collectible.

Summary:
Whether you're a seasoned numismatist or just beginning your coin-collecting journey, this collection is a fantastic opportunity to own a substantial and visually striking set of pennies. A must-have for history buffs and coin enthusiasts alike!
