August 9th, 2009

The 1909 V.D.B. Lincoln Cent was the first Lincoln cent minted. It was also the first cent to bear a portrait of the a President. It was issued to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Lincoln’s birthday. And it was also the first cent to bear the motto “In God We Trust”.

Currently GovMint has a few in stock, all in Fine condition. You can purchase single coin for $32.95, set of 3 for $87.95 and a set of 10 for $277.00.

Here is their official description:

When U.S. coin designer Victor David Brenner added his initials to this cent, uproar occurred among the public. They demanded that his rather large and conspicuous initials be removed at once from the coin. Mintage was stopped before the first year of production. His initials were eventually restored in 1918 and can be found in minute form on the rim just under the shoulder of Lincoln.

The obverse features Lincoln with the words “In God We Trust” at the top. The reverse is the familiar wheat design.

You can see more about the 1909 V.D.B Lincoln Cent at GovMint.
