As far as US coins are concerned, there are few more identifiable than the Lincoln penny. Having been produced for more than 100 years, it is one of the most common coins found. For collectors, older versions of the Lincoln penny are highly sought after, and the 1948 Lincoln is one of those coins.
On the obverse side of the 1948 Lincoln you will find the detailed image of Abraham Lincoln in the center. To the right of the central image you will notice a raised inscription marking the 1948 year of minting. Opposite the date marking is a raised inscription which reads “Liberty.” Finally, the phrase “In God We Trust” is seen arching overtop.
On the coin’s reverse you will notice two inscriptions in the center. One of the inscriptions reads “United States of America” and the other marks the “One Cent” face value. On the left and right outer edges of the coin exist two stalks of wheat, which give the coin its “Wheat Penny” nickname. Finally, the Latin phrase “E Pluribus Unum” arches overtop.
