Authorized under the Presidential One Dollar Coin Act, the Lincoln Bicentennial One Cent program (2009) commemorates Lincoln’s life with four new reverse designs signifying four biographic periods: his birthplace in Kentucky; Lincoln as a youth studying; Lincoln standing in front of the Illinois State Capitol; and the U.S. Capitol under construction during his presidency. The CFA most recently reviewed the coins in this series in January 2008.
