The 1956 Philadelphia 1-cent coin, commonly known as the Lincoln penny, is a notable example of collectible coins in the United States. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this coin is composed primarily of copper and features a depiction of President Abraham Lincoln on the obverse, with the Lincoln Memorial on the reverse. The 1956 penny is part of a larger series that collectors often seek, especially in high grades or in original uncirculated rolls, which can enhance its value among numismatists. Collectors often evaluate its condition based on factors such as strike quality, surface preservation, and any signs of wear.
