the last of lincoln's one cent coins is released

on november 12 2009 ,the last of the lincoln one cent series was released in washington d. c. by the u.s. mint. this coin will have a picture on the reverse of the u.s. capital in its initial stage of being built.rolls can be purchased from the u.s. mint at 1 800 usamint or from coin dealers in a couple of weeks. as with all coins minted this year they will be of low mintage due to commerce's low demand and will be extremely hard to find from local banks .

next year the mint will release a new one cent coin with an american flag with the number of states lincoln helped unify after the civil war. this coin will be minted for a number of years or until the coin is stopped being produced. generally a coin's design lasts fifty years .
