The 1994 Denver 1 cent coin, commonly known as the Lincoln penny, is part of the ongoing series of U.S. cents struck since 1909. It features a portrait of President Abraham Lincoln on the obverse and the Lincoln Memorial on the reverse, a design that was used until 2008, when it was replaced by a new design featuring the Union Shield. Coins from the Denver mint can be identified by the "D" mintmark. A roll of these coins contains 50 individual pennies, making them a popular choice for collectors and investors alike due to their small denomination and historical significance.
