Did You Get Your Wheaties Today?

For more than 100 years, the Lincoln Cent has been a familiar coin. Designed by Victor David Brenner, it was originally issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln’s birth and was the first coin to depict the likeness of an actual person compared to all other previous coin series that depicted various renderings of Liberty. For the first 50 years of its run from 1909 to 1958, the coins were called “Wheat-Back Cents” for their distinctive wheat ears that appeared on the reverse. The wheat ears were replaced by the Lincoln Memorial beginning in 1959.

Wheaties From Prohibition And The Roaring ’20s

Most of these pennies have long since disappeared, but now you can acquire them in a 100-coin roll! These coins available here were struck between 1920 and 1929—a date range that encompasses Prohibition and the Roaring ’20s. It was also a time during which less than 4% of all Wheat Cents were struck! It’s the perfect gift for a burgeoning collector, and a great idea for a fun family evening—gather everyone around the table, empty out your roll and enjoy seeing how many dates and mint marks you’ve managed to acquire. Dates vary, but each is more than 90 years old. Coins come in Good to Brilliant Uncirculated (G–BU) or better condition with lots of nice detail.
