Collectible coins, such as those from the United States, can encompass various denominations and years, reflecting historical significance and numismatic value. The 1 cent coin, commonly referred to as the penny, has been produced in several designs since its inception. In 1940, the cent featured the Lincoln design, introduced in 1909, which celebrates the 16th President of the United States. Rolls of 1940 cents are sought after by collectors for their age and potential historical context, often evaluated for condition and rarity within the series.
