About this product
Product Information
This historic 1925-S 1C BN Lincoln cent is a piece of the early run of the Lincoln coinage. The coin’s first mintage began in 1909 to commemorate the centennial of Lincoln’s birth. The Lincoln penny replaced the Indian Head, which dates back to 1859. The designer of the coin, Victor D. Brenner, artfully engraved the bust of Abraham Lincoln for the obverse. The right side of his face is showing, and the word “Liberty” is inscribed at the base of his neck. The motto “In God We Trust” is engraved in uppercase text above his head. The U.S. President is wearing a fine suit, vest, and bow tie, and the penny’s date, 1924, aligns with his breast. Just under the date is the coin’s mint mark “S,” denoting San Francisco. The coin’s reverse features two stalks of wheat, which is why it’s known as “the wheat penny” by many. Brenner chose durum wheat for the engraving for its aesthetics and plentitude, but the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC, would replace the wheat ears in 1959. The wheat pennies showed wheat stalks surrounded by the words “One Cent” and “United States of America” with the motto “E Pluribus Unum” featured along the top border of the coin’s reverse face. As one of the longest running designs listed in the United States Mint history, President Theodore Roosevelt chose it in 1909, after he had posed for Brenner himself in New York. Brenner’s association with his wheat penny solidified the portraiture’s enduring acclaim as a world renowned artist, sculptor, and engraver. According to NGC cataloging, this 1925-S 1 cent is 19 millimeters in diameter, weighs 3.11 grams, and has a plain edge. NGC specifies the cent’s metal is comprised of 95 percent copper and 5 percent tin and zinc. Each coin’s grade varies depending on how fine the lines and details are. An NGC fine to extra fine grade, for example, means that the portrait is clear and that the details of the wheat are visible; therefore the piece is worth more because of a better grade. These pennies can not only be a great gift for new collector but can also provide value to any already established collection given the variety in grading between pieces. This 1925-S penny can not just add prestige as a collector’s item but can provide enrichment and learning for anyone who may be interested in U.S. currencies.
