For nearly 100 years, the Lincoln Cent has been a familiar everyday coin. But that may become history if recent legislation such as The Legal Tender Modernization Act (HR2528) is enacted, eliminating the one-cent coin forever. These solid bronze coins have not been minted for over 45 years. Most have long disappeared, but now you can acquire them not by the rarity of individual coins but by Troy weight — just $19.95 for a full half-pound bag of original vintage "Wheaties."

Affectionately called "Whea" cents for the distinctive wheat ears flanking the denomination on the back, every bag will have coins spanning all these decades:
1910-1919
1920-1929
1930-1939
1940-1949
1950-1959
P, D and S Mint Marks

The long-gone Lincoln Wheat Cent is one of the most popular U.S. coins of all time. Struck from 1909-1958, these solid bronze coins were the first cents to have the motto IN GOD WE TRUST and were originally issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Lincoln's birth. Compared to today's lightweight zinc coins, the decades-old Lincoln Wheat Cents are hefty coins rich with American history. A mainstay of our national coinage for 50 years, they're a great piece of nostalgia for people of all ages and perfect for young collectors.
