The 1960 Denver mint mark cent is a copper penny produced in the United States, primarily made of 95% copper and 5% zinc. It features the iconic portrait of Abraham Lincoln on the obverse and the Lincoln Memorial on the reverse. Coin collectors often seek out rolls of these cents for their historical value and as part of larger sets. The 1960 Denver cent is particularly noted for its place in the transition period from the traditional copper composition to the later zinc-coated cents introduced in 1982.
