The Lincoln Memorial Penny has featured the profile of President Abraham Lincoln since 1909, the centennial of his birth. In 1959, a depiction of the Lincoln Memorial was created in honor of the sesquicentennial of his birth year. This 2005 proof coin features sharp relief and mirror-like backgrounds, giving it a frosted, sculpted foregrounds and a special cameo effect. Similar to coin shown.
