United States Coins

Featured U.S. Penny:

1909 Lincoln Wheat VDB - Buy It Now!

The 1909 Lincoln Wheat VDB Penny marked a shift in U.S. coinage. Issued for Lincoln’s centennial, it was the first American coin to feature a real person. Designed by Victor D. Brenner, its “V.D.B.” initials on the reverse stirred early controversy and collector excitement. With limited mintage and strong symbolism, it remains one of the most desired wheat pennies. This historic piece captures the spirit of a nation and stands as a cornerstone for any serious numismatic collection.

Featured U.S. Nickel:

1942 Wartime Alloy Jefferson Nickel - Buy It Now!

They’re the only nickels with a large mint mark above Monticello—including the first-ever “P” for Philadelphia.
