“The Last Circulating 90% Pure Silver

President John F. Kennedy
4WWII decorated war hero-PT109
(Purple Heart, Navy and Marine Corps Medal)
4Pulitzer Prize Winner-Profiles in Courage
4House of Representatives / Senate
4Youngest U.S. President ever elected
4First Boy Scout to be U.S. President
4Founded the Navy SEALs & Peace Corps
Half Dollar Minted in U.S. History!”
President John F. Kennedy was the last U.S. President who defended the traditional role of silver in U.S. coinage.
After President Kennedy was killed in November 1963, silver demand rose so fast that President Lyndon Johnson
opted to take silver out of most U.S. coins during the early summer of 1965.
“Our present silver coins won’t disappear and they won’t even become rarities,” Johnson said. “If anybody has any
idea of hoarding our silver coins, let me say this. There will be no profit in holding them out of circulation for the
value of their silver content.”
President Johnson was very, very wrong. Today, the price of pre-1965 circulated silver coins, like 1964 Kennedy
half-dollars, are about 20 times their face value. Don’t be like LBJ, buy silver TODAY.

Even as this is being read, the U.S. government is printing trillions of dollars in paper money. This will cause the price of Gold and Silver to
rise drastically – a pattern leaving us anticipating coins to continue to rise in value even though their extreme shortage persists due to the
COVID-19 shutdown.
Later this year, the U.S. government is changing the design of the American Silver Eagle, which will leave collectors searching high and low for
the scarce 2021 American Silver Eagle with the early year design (Type I). The year 2021 will, also, host a newly designed 2021 Peace Dollar
as an homage to this Silver Dollar’s 100th anniversary.

CAC has been providing confidence to collectors for 14 years
Year after year, coin by coin, CAC has continued to hold coins to a higher standard.
Over 14 years ago, CAC was formed by leading members of the numismatic
community to provide an easy way to identify select quality coins within any
particular grade. The CAC sticker signifies that a coin is solid for the grade - giving
collectors “out-of-this-world” confidence. What’s more, CAC stands behind its
stickered coins as the biggest and most active market maker.
CAC continues to experience out-of-this-world growth.
Over 1.4 Million Coins Evaluated (insured value $6.5 billion, average value over $4,500.00)
Team of 4 Expert Graders (each with decades of professional experience)
CAC is the premier market maker for its stickered coins (over $700,000,000 in purchases)
CAC provides a FREE Independent Market Value Guide powered by CDN Greysheet
CAC coins continue to bring a premium in the market
CAC gives you out-of-this-world confidence!

A LOOK AT COINS & AUTOGRAPHS WITH

Michael J. Standish
Michael J. Standish is a rare coin, sports memorabilia and autograph
expert. He created the concept of combining modern coins with
related autographs, both encapsulated together in the same tamper-
resistant holder. Standish began his career in 1984. He later joined
the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) as Vice President and
became Vice President of the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC).

figure in modern certified coins?
I did not set out to be the key figure in
the modern marketplace. It seemed to
just end up that way. I worked for many
years and created grading programs
such as colored labels, the ‘Double Play’
of collectibles and autographs, and the
‘First Strike’ designation at PCGS.
Colored labels often designate coins
that commemorate a special event or
numismatic release. ‘Double Play’ denotes
combining collectibles with autographs.
‘First Strike’ designates coins issued within
thirty days of their release by the Mint.

Collectors Holdings Raises

$100 Million & Unifies Brands
Collectors Holdings, Inc. (Collectors)
announced it raised $100 million in new
funding at a $4.3 billion valuation, and
that the company has grown its revenue
and EBITDA by over 100% year-over-year.
The new financing comes as the company
launches its new corporate branding and
website www.Collectors.com.
The new Collectors.com unifies the
company’s brands into one experience
and showcases the suite of authentica-
tion and grading services (PCGS, PSA,
WATA), marketplace and auction plat-
forms (Goldin, CollectorsCorner) and
collectibles research tools (Card Ladder)
offered by the growing company. The new
funding, raised from existing investors,
will be used to grow the business further
and invest in new technology that further
improves the experience for hobbyists.
“Our vision has always been to reinvest
via technology and capacity expansion
into our brands and simplify the collect-
ing experience through innovation,” said
Collectors CEO Nat Turner. “As a long-
time collector, I’m personally passionate
about the industry, and have been thrilled
to be a part of its overall growth the last
several years. We’re going to continue
focusing on improving the customer
experience and providing the trusted tools
that every collector needs.”
In addition to the company’s new funding
and platform, Collectors is also announcing
the launch of a secure vault platform and
collection management service.
The vault service will enable collec-
tors to seamlessly submit their items for
authentication and grading by PSA and
transfer those items directly to a secure,
11,000-square-foot Delaware facility.
Collectors can then digitally manage
their collection through Collectors.com
by adding new items to the vault at any
time or by offering items for sale through
the Goldin marketplace.
Collectors was acquired last year by an
investor group led by Turner, D1 Capital
Partners L.P., Cohen Private Ventures,
LLC and TCG Capital Management, L.P.

team visit Collectors.com.

1953 Royal Mint Sovereign – portrait
by Mary Gillick.

 BY L.A. SOKOLOWSKI
H
RH Queen Elizabeth II has ruled for
longer than most numismatists have been
collecting, and since her ascension, after
the passing of her father, George VI, to the
throne in June 1953, collectible coins portraying her
royal image have rained like pences from heaven.
The Royal Mint Museum cites five coinage
portraits of Queen Elizabeth II’s Royal Profile as
‘official record’ of her seven-decade reign. The
Royal Canadian Mint has produced four portraits
(known as effigies) including, for the first time,
two by Canadian artists. Overall, portraits of
this enduring monarch span 15 Commonwealth
realms: Antigua and Barbuda, Australia, The
Bahamas, Belize, Canada, Grenada, Jamaica, New
Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Saint Kitts and
Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grena-
dines, Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, and the United
Kingdom.
Queen Elizabeth coins range in value from $5 to
$9,000 (U.S.) and sell on average, per a JewelAdvi-
sor.com report earlier this year, for about $20. For
the collector with a taste for the extravagant, her
largest official portrait is also among the world’s
10 rarest gold/silver coins. The Queen Elizabeth
II Million Dollar Coin (2007), of 999.99% refined
pure gold, is an empirical 53 centimeters (20.8”) in
diameter and weighs 100 kilos (220 pounds).

There have also been special
portraits created for milestones
such as birthdays, anniversaries and
jubilees, including the 2022 Platinum
Jubilee image by coinage artist
John Bergdahl (who also produced
the coins celebrating the 2012
London Olympic and Paralympic
Games). Like the 1953 coronation
crown created by Gilbert Ledward
RA, Elizabeth II – the first British
ruler to reach the Platinum Jubilee
milestone – is on horseback, riding in
the uniform of the Horse Guards, but
differentiated from prior portraits by
the addition of the royal garter from
the Royal Coat of Arms.
The Royal Mint, which has struck
the coins of the British monarchy
since Alfred the Great (c. 880-1400),
has struck all the coins of Queen
Elizabeth II’s reign and says each
“portrays this remarkable woman
from the unique viewpoint of each
artist’s interpretation and style,
combining to chart an era in British
history referred to as the ‘new Eliza-
bethan Age.’ These coins have told the
story of Her Majesty’s journey from
a young queen to the experienced,
respected head of state she is today.”
The coins of her realm may vary
in value but the stories behind their
portrait remain priceless.
THE FIRST DEFINITIVE COINAGE
PORTRAIT (1953)
Two female artists are credited
with Britain’s first impression of its
27-year-old monarch. Photographer
Dorothy Wilding took the photo of
Her Majesty in a profile that informed
the submissions to The Royal Mint
Advisory Committee (RMAC). The
committee also chose Mary Gaskell
Gillick, a bas-relief sculptor who
worked from a small chapel in a
Moravian burial ground in Chelsea.
Her design, the last to be used on
pre-decimal coinage, was also the
first to portray Elizabeth uncrowned,
bearing a simple laurel wreath. HRH
Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh,
visited Glick’s studio as she refined
her work. He contested her portrayal
of his young bride’s neck. Humphrey
Paget (creator of the coinage portrait
of Her Majesty’s father, George VI,
and runner-up to create Elizabeth II’s)
defended Glick. “I took measurements.
The Queen has a long neck,” said
Paget. The Daily Telegraph reported,
“The Duke found no fault with the
length but disapproved of the curve.”

THE SECOND DEFINITIVE COINAGE
PORTRAIT (1968)
With the advent of decimalization,
a new portrait was hoped to distin-
guish the new coins, introduced in
1968, from the old. Sculptor Arnold
Machin stated that he hoped to
produce “a design with charm and
dignity, yet without sentimentality.”
He wished to, “Recapture something
of the richness and vitality of earlier
coins which has not seemed possible
with the limiting techniques of
modern mass production.”
The Queen sat four times for
sketches and the Machin series also
led to the 4d postage stamp design
issued in June 1967. It was later called
one of the world’s most reproduced
works of art with 320 billion copies.
This portrait too was not without
encounter from The Duke. Machin
recalled friend and artist Peter
Greenham sharing how The Queen
had, “chatted to him about me. She
said, ‘The Duke came in to look at my
model and commented that the chin
wanted to be stronger and needed
more clay, which Mr. Machin did –
but as soon as the Duke left he took it
off again!”
THE THIRD DEFINITIVE COINAGE
PORTRAIT (1985)
A garden party led the RMAC to
its third artist, Raphael Maklouf,
who had initially eschewed the
photograph provided for the
competition. “By coincidence, I was
invited to one of the royal garden
parties and having been introduced
to Her Majesty, I remarked to her
that I was working from a less
COINS OF HER REALM
MORE FACES
OF THE MONARCH
As a Commonwealth country,
Canada has included an effigy
of the monarch on its coins
since The Royal Canadian Mint
started production in 1908.
Four versions of Her Majesty
Queen Elizabeth II (1953, 1965,
1990, 2003) have appeared. In
2002, a 50-cent Golden Jubilee
circulation coin was issued,
replicating the 1953 Canadian
Coronation Medallion.
The third effigy, 1990-2002,
became the first created by a
Canadian portraitist, Dora de
Pédery-Hunt. Canadian artist
Susanna Blunt has designed the
current effigy, which chooses
to portray The Queen for the
first time in the style chosen by
her father, George VI, for his
coinage, without a crown.

said Maklouf. He rejected critiques
that his portrait was flatteringly
young and said his intent was, “To
sculpt a symbol, not just a photo-
graphic image.”
THE FOURTH DEFINITIVE COINAGE
PORTRAIT (1998)
British sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley
FRBS has the distinction of com-
memorating more than one member
of the Royal Family and bringing a
smile to the face of one in particular.
In 1997, he won the RMAC competi-
tion for a new effigy of Elizabeth II.
In 2007, he designed the conjoint
portrait of Elizabeth II and Prince
Philip on the crown coin celebrating
their 60th wedding anniversary.
Later, he designed the gold kilo coin
celebrating the Queen’s Diamond
Jubilee. In 2021, on what would have
been her 60th birthday, his statue
of Princess Diana was unveiled at
Kensington Palace in London.
Photographs supplied by RMAC
for this portrait competition again
seemed to lack inspiration, so he
reimagined a more mature monarch
than his predecessors.
“Age is no respecter of persons,
royal or otherwise. Although I was
aware that my work might attract
criticism, I felt it essential to the
integrity of the project for the portrait
to be recognizable and not over-
idealized,” he said.
 COINS OF HER REALM

His notes outlined changing

where the coin’s inscription started
and – most dramatically - introducing
the hint of a smile to the Queen’s
portrait. In comparison to painting
an enigmatic Mona Lisa, engraving a
smile was, “More difficult because the
complex relationship of facial muscles
do not allow one to indicate a par-
ticular expression without changing
the surrounding features and thus, in
a subtle way, changing the whole look
of the face.”
After months spent perfecting a
design and overcoming technical issues,
he achieved the depiction he sought.
“I hope I may be regarded as having
made a valuable contribution to the
rich history of coinage in this country.
When I see my initials beneath the
royal effigy on the coins as a record of
my achievement, I feel honored.”
“I looked at the designs of the 1998 Royal Mint Sovereign – por-

“I wanted to make some clear distinc-
tions between the portrait by Ian

hasn’t aged too much in the years
since,” said fifth and current portrait-
ist, Jody Clark, the first designer at
The Royal Mint in more than 100
years (since 1902, when George
William de Saulles engraved the
portrait of Edward VII). Unlike prior
contests, this was a closed competi-
tion. A panel selected Clark’s design

submissions.
Clark’s portrait, approved by Her
Majesty’s Treasurer and The Queen
herself, depicts Elizabeth II wearing
the Royal Diamond Diadem crown
from her coronation.

to work as part of the set as well as
work on its own.”
HISTORY: THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COIN
Part of a tradition dating back more
than three centuries, each effigy of a
ruling King or Queen faces opposite
the direction of their predecessor. The
Queen’s father, George VI, faced the
left; thus Elizabeth II faces the right.
Adam Lawrence, chief executive
at The Royal Mint, said Clark’s
achievement was a proud moment
for a centuries-old craft: “Capturing
a portrait on the surface of a coin
demands the utmost skill, and is one
of the most challenging disciplines of
the coin designer’s art.”

their jurisdiction.
After Crassus’ defeat and death dur-
ing his invasion of Parthia in 53 B.C.,
Pompey and Caesar lost a powerful
ally that would lead the two men into
war for the supreme power of the
Republic. While Caesar was complet-
ing his conquest of Gaul (modern-day
France) in 51 B.C., Pompey was in
Rome gaining favor with the Senate
who were opposed to the increasing
military authority of Caesar.
In 49 B.C., the senate would eventu-
ally demand that Caesar disband his
army and gave Pompey authority to
defend the Republic against Caesar.
Caesar refused and made his famous
crossing of the Rubicon river along
with his most trusted general Marc
Antony in 49 B.C. to confront Pompey.
52 COINAGE | COINAGEMAG.COM
He was met with little resistance,
as Pompey and many senators fled
to Greece. Caesar would ultimately
meet Pompey on the battlefield at
Pharsalus in 48 B.C., where Caesar
was outnumbered by more than
10,000 men. Despite the odds
against him, the battle would end up
being another example of Caesar’s
supreme military tactics, as Pompey
would suffer total defeat and flee
for his life to Egypt where he was
soon murdered. The Senate would
declare Caesar as dictator several
times, acknowledging his superiority
on the battlefield and intense loyalty
from his troops.
The coin seen above was issued
at the beginning of 44 B.C., and
displays Julius Caesar on the obverse
with the Latin inscription “CAESAR
DICT QVUART” which translated
means “Caesar Dictator for the
Fourth Time.” This was the first
time a Roman leader appeared on
their coinage, quite a statement at
the time where the Roman Republic
was ruled collectively by Consuls
and the Senate. The reverse depicts
the Roman goddess Juno Sospita,
known as the Savior of Rome, a

direct tribute to Caesar and his
efforts to save the Republic.
This coin would prove to be con-
troversial, as many felt that Caesar
had acquired too much power.
Resentment had begun to build up
as many traditional Republicans felt
the title of dictator should only be a
temporary title during a crisis.
BRUTUS DENARIUS
Eventually, Caesar would be
granted the title Dictator perpetuo
(dictator for life) in 44 B.C. which
created even more adversity. The
tremendous authority bestowed
upon one man was unprecedented
and too much for many to handle.
It wouldn’t take long for a rebellion
to take shape, which ultimately led
to Caesar being murdered by Brutus
and Cassius among other senators on
the Ides (15th) of March. Ironically,
Brutus later celebrated the event with
a portrait of his own on the infamous
“Eid Mar” coin referring to the ”Ides
of March.” The coin seen on page 52
reveals Brutus on the obverse, while
the reverse shows a liberty cap which
was often referred to as a symbol
of freedom. The cap is flanked by

the Egyptian queen Cleopatra VII
during this time. Tetradrachms, such
as the one above from 36 B.C., depict
Cleopatra on the obverse and Marc
Antony on the reverse. It’s believed
these coins declared the political
alliance between the two and also
served as payment to his soldiers
during their eastern campaigns.
Antony exerted a lot of effort in
bringing these provinces under his
control, although Italy remained
under Octavian’s influence. Open
conflict seemed inevitable, and after
a second Triumvirate failed involving
the two men and Lepidus, the two
armies eventually met at the Battle
of Actium in 31 B.C. Octavian’s navy
was led by Agrippa, a competent
commander who routed Antony
and Cleopatra’s navy and sent them
both fleeing for Egypt. Antony and
Cleopatra would eventually commit
suicide there, leaving Octavian as the
sole leader of the Roman world.
AUGUSTUS
This event marked the end of the
Roman Republic, as Octavian had
now achieved absolute power. He
would continue to accumulate vari-
ous titles and set out to methodically
restructure the Roman Republic into
a hereditary monarchy. It was the
dawn of a new era, and the Roman
Empire soon took shape. By 27 B.C.,
the Senate had bestowed upon him
the honorific title Augustus, or the
“Illustrious One.” The coin shown
on page 53 reveals Augustus on the
obverse facing right, with his heir
Caius Ceasar on horseback with
standards of the Roman army in the
background.
Augustus would rule his newly
established empire for 45 years until
A.D. 14, providing the foundation of
an Empire that would exist for many
years to come.
MARCUS AURELIUS
In the second century A.D., the
Roman Empire reached its peak
because of the diligence of its emper-
ors and their ability to expand and
defend their domain.
One famous Emperor during this
period was Marcus Aurelius, who
reigned from A.D. 161 to 180. During
his 20-year reign, Aurelius witnessed
large-scale wars that threatened the
security of the Empire and its borders.
Aurelius was a stoic and according
to historians, always performed his
duty to the best of his ability. He is one
of the few Emperors that personally
led his troops into battle, despite his
affinity for philosophy and a simpler
way of life. The victories of his military
campaigns are well documented on his
coinage, such as this specially issued
medallion struck in A.D. 173. The
obverse of this coin shows Aurelius
facing right dressed in military armor,
while the reverse pays tribute to his
recent victory over the Germanic
Marcomanni and Quadi tribes.

Despite this military success, the
gains that Aurelius experienced
while defending the borders of
the Empire were soon lost after
his death in A.D. 180. His son,
Commodus, proved to be relatively
inept at military affairs and led to
a steady decline in the Empire over
the next 100 years. It wasn’t until
A.D. 286 that Emperor Diocletian
recognized the strain on the Empire
and decided to divide it into an
Eastern and Western Empire each
governed by separate rulers.
The Empire was stabilized and
entered its next evolution as two
separate but connected territories.
The Western Empire would
continue until it was overthrown
by the Barbarian King Odoacer in
A.D. 476, while the Eastern Empire
existed well beyond but became bet-
ter known as the Byzantine Empire.
JUSTINIAN II
One influential Byzantine Emper-
or was Justinian II who ruled from
A.D. 685 to 695 and also 705 to
711. He was an ambitious Emperor
who tried to regain the glory of the
Empire with aggressive campaigns
against the Arabs in Armenia and
also the Balkans.

The
LUCKY
Lincoln
Penny?
A POPULAR COIN WHOSE TIME MAY BE RUNNING OUT
BY JOSHUA MCMORROW-HERNANDEZ
T
here’s no more familiar a fixture in American
numismatics than the Lincoln cent. The coin
debuted in 1909 and has seen the United
States through 20 presidents, two world wars,
and the Great Depression.
The tenacious Lincoln cent came along before
television, electronic computers, jet planes, space
rockets, robots, refrigerators and even sliced bread.
It has also survived a barrage of attempts to banish
it from circulation on the grounds of increasing
production costs and economic obsolescence. For
years, it has cost well more than one cent to produce
the coin. The Lincoln cent has been an endangered
species since at least the 1970s when rising copper
56 COINAGE | COINAGEMAG.COM
prices and staggering inflation threatened to snuff
the penny out of existence. Today it costs around
1.76 cents to produce one Lincoln cent.
Few people carry pennies around these days, let
alone spend them. What’s the point of making a
coin whose independent buying power is essentially
nil and has little purpose beyond making change?
Who knows how many pennies sit in glass
jars, sock drawers and piggy banks today? Some
estimates broadly peg the number well into the
tens of billions. But the real value of the Lincoln
cent today may not rest in its meager spending
power but rather its vast potential to lure people
into numismatics.

UNDERSTANDING THE LOVE FOR LINCOLN
When the Lincoln cent was released
on August 2, 1909, people lined
up for hours at the New York City
subtreasury building and other loca-
surprised about the appearance
of Brenner’s “VDB” initials on the
reverse of the new coin. He ordered
the U.S. Mint to stop minting the
Lincoln cent right away to remove

The Lincoln cent has seen three
permanent reverse designs over the
years, including the Wheat Ears motif of

1959-2008, and current Shield type that
debuted in 2010.

tions around the U.S. just to get their
hands on the new coin. Designed by
Lithuanian American sculptor Victor
David Brenner, the Lincoln cent was
an instant hit with the young and old.
The lore of the Lincoln cent took
on a life of its own right out of the
gate, with Secretary of the Treasury
Franklin MacVeagh reportedly
the prominent initials, much to the
dismay of Brenner. “I am delighted
that so much attention has been
directed to the new cents,” the
artist said. “That pleases me, but the
taking of my initials off takes half the
satisfaction away.”
The thrill wasn’t gone with collec-
tors, who learned the 1909 Lincoln

cents from the Philadelphia and San
Francisco Mints that struck the new
pennies with “VDB” would soon
become collectibles. Within days,
the discontinued 1909 VDB Lincoln
cent, with a mintage of 27,995,000,
was selling three for five cents.
Meanwhile, the much-scarcer 1909-S
VDB Lincoln cents, with a mintage of
only 484,000, garnered as much as 25
to 50 cents apiece.
DIMINISHING RETURNS?
Even as early as the 1920s, the cent
was a coin with little buying power.
The August 1922 issue of The Numis-
matist featured an article called “Coin
Crop for 1922 a Failure” in which
58 COINAGE | COINAGEMAG.COM
Mint Director Frank Edgar Scobey
is quoted as saying, “As for cents,
only $70,000 have been coined at the
Denver Mint, as against $492,000 the
preceding year… So, what’s the use of
making more, when about the only
things you can still buy with a penny
nowadays are lollypops?”
However, Americans were still
in love with the coin a decade later
in the 1930s when the first “penny
boards” were sold to the public. Soon,
millions were actively searching
pocket change, purses and coin jars
for Lincoln cents of every date and
mintmark. Some issues were proving
harder to find than others – the 1914-
D, just about every San Francisco
date before 1918, the 1922 no D, the
1926-S and the 1931-S.
FUELING A REVOLUTION
In 1943, with World War II rations
fully underway, the U.S. Mint
switched to a zinc-coated steel
planchet to conserve copper for the
war effort. But when a few bronze
planchets ended up getting struck
with the 1943 dies, the search was on
for the valuable transitional error.

When numismatics took off during
the 1950s, millions were paying close
attention to their change looking
for scarce dates and key dates. But
when the 1955 doubled die Lincoln
cent emerged, it caused widespread
hysteria and quickly became the most
popular die variety – arguably a claim
it still holds today.
Lincoln cent enthusiast Stewart Blay
fondly recalls the mid-century golden
era of collecting coins. “The Lincoln
Cent was the first coin I collected,”
says the collector whose Lincoln
cent set ranks atop the Professional
Coin Grading Service’s competitive
registry. “In my opinion, there are
more famous Lincoln cents that can
be found in circulation than any
other coin denomination, such as
the 1909-S VDB, 1914-D, 1922 no D,
1943 copper cent, 1955 doubled die,
1969-S doubled die, and others.”
He says some of the unique chal-
lenges in collecting a complete Lincoln
cent set are the many doubled dies,
the early matte proofs, overdates, and
the mega-rarities like the 1943 bronze
and 1944 steel cent transitional errors.

a compositional change was again
front and center when copper prices
soared in the late 1970s and early ‘80s,
ushering in the copper-coated zinc
Lincoln cents first issued in 1982.
Calls to eliminate the Lincoln cent
became more vocal throughout the
1980s and ‘90s, with then-Delaware
Republican Representative Mike
Castle spearheading a campaign in
1996 to explore the potential of nixing
the cent. “I’ve looked at the polls,
which show less and less acceptance
of the penny,” he said to reporters at
The Baltimore Sun for a September
1996 article. “I’ve personally observed
the disregard for it in a variety of
stores, which wave it off.”
NOT UNCHARTED TERRITORY
The Lincoln cent is a part of the
lexicon, with common sayings like “a
penny saved is a penny earned” and
“find a penny pick it up, all day long
you’ll have good luck.” How many
people have tossed pennies into water
fountains to make a wish? And how
many folks carry the name “Penny?”
A 2015 Harris poll found that 51%
of Americans opposed abolishing
the one-cent coin, and a more recent
2019 survey by Americans for Com-
mon Cents found 68% of respondents
voting to keep the penny – even as
more and more people use plastic to
buy goods and services.
In the United States, the half cent
was kicked off production in 1857
because of rising copper prices and
the coin’s evaporating value then. Yet,
the equivalent value of the half cent in
1857 would equal more than a dime
in today’s world. So, why keep around
a coin whose value is so little?
“Going by Canada’s experience with
this matter back in 2012 and 2013, the
public accepted the discontinuance
of their one-cent coins with hardly

any hitches,” said coin expert Maurice
Rosen. “The sky didn’t fall.”
A PENNY SAVED IS A PENNY LEARNED
“If Washington lobbyists for the base-
metals industry are unable to reverse
legislation to pull the plug on the
one-cent coin in the U.S. the general
public likely won’t give it more than a
passing thought,” Rosen says. “Though
some coin collectors might be upset.”
And there’s the rub. The Lincoln
cent is an important coin – to
Americans in general, and especially
to numismatists. Longtime dealer
Charmy Harker, widely known as
“The Penny Lady,” refers to the
Lincoln cent as a “gateway” coin that
brings many people into the hobby.
Originally drawn to Indian cents in
her youth, Harker feels the Lincoln
cent holds an especially integral place
with today’s collectors. “Lincoln cents
are probably more prevalent with
today’s younger collectors because
they are easier to find and search
through wheat cents that are still

available in rolls from banks, bags
from coin shops, and/or jars and cans
filled with pennies that were stowed
away in pantries.”
LINCOLN CENT’S LEGACY WILL CARRY ON
Lincoln cent expert Charles
Daughtrey is confident that
American numismatics will carry
on whether or not the Lincoln cent
hits the chopping block. “I highly
doubt cutting cents from commerce
would kill collecting coins,” he says.
“I do believe, however, that there
are enough existing coins out there
to spread among collectors that a
sudden withdrawal of the coin from
commerce would probably have a
more positive impact on collectors.”
Daughtrey believes the size of the
newcomer collector base for Lincoln
cents is proportionately larger than it
is for other coins. “They are easy to
acquire, are rather inexpensive, and in
all collector levels they are one of the
largest and most challenging series to
collect,” he says.

What Happens
if the Cent is
NO LONGER
The one-cent piece is in danger of
being abolished.
ILLUSTRATION COURTESY PCGS
THE PRESENT STATE OF AFFAIRS
There has been speculation for some years about the
lowly cent coin and whether it will be abolished. The
best indication of this is the official U.S Mint report
for 2021 which indicates that the true cost of each
cent coin to the tax-payers is 2.1 cents while even
the five-cent piece (nickel) comes in at an 8.5 cents.
These numbers alone put both coins at risk though
the cent is the leading candidate for the firing squad.
What, then, will happen when the cent is
abolished? For the general public, prices would
then be rounded to the nearest nickel and special
sale prices such as $9.99 will likely revert to

Collectors are concerned that the new series

$9.95. A different scenario would be a price of,
say, $10.06 going to $10.10 and indications of
inflation, another matter the authorities clearly
wish to avoid. This is a politically touchy issue
and the government will hold off as long as
possible making such a change as voters will
naturally blame the party in power for increasing
prices and robbing them of their money.
WHAT HAPPENED WHEN OTHER COINS WERE ABOLISHED
The other result for the withdrawal of the cent
is harder to predict but is likely that history will
repeat itself. In 1857, the large copper cent and half

cent were abolished and replaced by a much smaller
Flying Eagle copper-nickel cent. A fair number of
people decided that they wanted to acquire a set of
these copper coins, especially the cent, for as many
dates as possible.
Banks were visited by these neophyte collectors
and every large cent in sight was bought up to
examine for the best conditions for each date.
Excess coins were returned to the banks to be
gone through by other collectors. Those coins of
no interest, or in poor condition, were sent to the
Philadelphia Mint to be melted and used as an
alloy in the other coins then being struck.

The half cent also ended in 1857.
ILLUSTRATION COURTESY HERITAGE AUCTIONS HA.COM
The public fascination with the old copper
coins, oddly enough, did not extend to other
denominations that were abolished over the next
several years. These coins included the two-cent
piece (last struck in 1873), the silver three-cent
piece (also last struck in 1873), half dime (again
1873), and the standard silver dollar (also 1873).

years but it was only the old copper cents and half

This public awareness of the cent, once it disappears

from daily use, will also lead to increased collector
activity. Many of those who acquire large numbers of

expand their cent holdings but others will discover

Many people saved Indian Head 20TH CENTURY EVENTS FOR CENT COINAGE
cents after the series ended in
1909. The twentieth century did produce
ILLUSTRATION COURTESY HERITAGE AUC-
TIONS HA.COM additional interest in the cent.
The introduction of the Lincoln
cent design in 1909 meant that the
Indian Head cent of 1859–1909 would
gradually leave the marketplace in
favor of the new design. The writer’s
grandmother, for example, began
to pull Indian Head cents from her
change in the late 1920s as no doubt
did many other people.
Even until the 1940s one could
occasionally find an Indian Head
cent in a bank roll or in circulation.
By 1950 this was almost never the
case except when a child managed to
use some of a parent’s coin collec-
tion for candy or other necessities in
that far-off era.
What, then, will happen when the
cent is abolished? My prediction is
that the same will happen as was
the case in 1857. The value of the
cent is so low in terms of modern
wages that a great many people will
go to the banks and buy up all of the
cents that can be found to acquire as

Those putting aside date runs
of cents will also soon learn that
there was a major change in the
cent alloy in 1982. From a brass
cent composed of copper and zinc,
but mostly copper, the alloy was
changed to a copper-coated zinc
planchet containing less than one
percent copper. These discoveries
will lead to further interest in variet-
ies of the cent, such as the famous
1955 double-die obverse.
WHAT WILL THE FUTURE BRING
This public awareness of the cent,
once it disappears from daily use,
will also lead to increased collector
activity. Many of those who acquire
large numbers of cents will be content
to stay at that point and simply
expand their cent holding. Others will
discover equally interesting aspects of

that the nickel is also an endangered

now affecting the United States, as
well as other countries, may choose
the nickel as the next target to do

There is a counter-argument on
another outcome alongside the
cent interest. At present, there is
considerable pressure from govern-
ments around the world to do away
with physical money, both coins and
banknotes, to achieve a truly digital
economy. This idea is dear to the
hearts of the treasuries and their
taxing capabilities. It is unlikely that
the United States will ever reach
this plateau of monetary affairs. The
uncertainty is what makes the public
interested in such matters.

COMMEMORATING AMERICAN WOMEN ON COINS
Susan B. Anthony in 1979 was the
first woman to appear on circulat-

of Spain. In 1893, a non-circulating
U.S. commemorative silver quarter
dollar coin was produced by the
Philadelphia Mint for the Chicago
World’s Fair. Although this coin has
a face value of twenty-five cents (you
can spend it as a quarter), it was
not designed for general commerce,
but, instead, for coin collectors to
save.
Some 86 years later, Susan B.
Anthony (1820-1906), the famous
American pioneer in the women’s
right to vote, was the first woman to
appear on circulating U.S. coinage.
The Susan B. Anthony dollar was
first manufactured for people to
spend by the U.S. Mint in 1979. The
hope was that the dollar-sized coin
(26.5 mm) that featured her, which
was a tad larger than the quarter
dollar (24.3 mm), would replace the
large (38.1 mm) Eisenhower dollar
coin (1971-1978). But the coin,
larger than a quarter, never was able
to replace the dollar bill because the
dollar coin was too easily confused
with the quarter.
SACAGAWEA DOLLARS
The Sacagawea U.S. dollar (2000-
2008) features an obverse that
honors the 16-year-old
Lemhi Shoshone
woman who aided
the Lewis and Clark
Exposition in 1804
in its exploration
of the Louisiana
Territory. She is

dollar was transitioned in 2009 into
the Native American dollar coin
program.
GOLD DOLLARS SENT INTO ORBIT
Twelve gold dollars were selected
(twenty-seven were melted) to
be taken aboard the space shuttle
Columbia, where the coins traveled
almost 1.8 million miles over four
days to commemorate the flight of
the first woman U.S. astronaut, Ellen
Collins, to command a space flight.
Unfortunately, these coins can’t be
seen today because in 2001 they were
placed in perpetual storage at the
Fort Knox Bullion Depository.
STRIKING HER OWN COIN
Eunice Kennedy Shriver, a co-
founder of the Special Olympics, is
the only woman depicted on a U.S.
commemorative coin whose visage
appears on the coin and struck her
own coin. She pressed the “strike”

She is seen on the obverse of its 1995

 MARKET REPORT
Will History Repeat Itself?
T
hey say that to know the future, you
must know the past. Some speculate
that today’s economic conditions may
soon mirror the 1970s that marked gold’s
finest decade with two major bull markets
for bullion and rare coins.
THE PREDICTION
Former Federal Reserve Board Chairman
Ben Bernanke said recently in his book, 21st
Century Monetary Policy: The Federal Reserve
from the Great Inflation to COVID-19, that he
hopes the current Fed Chair, Jerome Powell,
can curb inflation without the extreme
measures that Fed Chair Paul Volcker engi-
neered from 1979 to 1982. He also suggested
the country may be heading into stagflation
again: “Even with a favorable scenario, we
should have a slowdown in the economy,” he
said. “… Inflation is still too high, but coming
down. So there should be a period in the next
year or two where growth is low, unemploy-
ment is at least up a little bit and inflation is
still high. So you could call that stagflation.”
With current economic conditions, we are
bound, possibly, for years of inflation and
recessions. This economic nightmare is along
the lines of the 1970s stagflation decade

when gold rose from $35 to $200 from 1971
to 1974, then paused before rising from $103
to $850 between 1976 to 1980 and the rare
coin market did even better.
THE HISTORY
The OPEC Oil Embargo in 1973 kicked off
nearly a decade of stagflation that lasted until
1982. According to a number of economics
textbooks in the pre-1973 era, we either
had deflation in a recession or inflation in
a boom. In 1973, we had the worst of both
worlds: high inflation in a recession.
In the 1970s, stocks and bonds declined
in real terms and bank passbook savings
accounts were capped at 5.25% by law.
Americans could not legally own gold until
1975 or easily buy Swiss francs or other
currencies until the 1980s.
Rare coins profited over other investments
in the 1970s, growing over 40-fold, according
to the PCGS3000® Rare Coin Price Index. Rare
coins rose from a starting value of $1,000 on
January 1, 1970, to $41,000 in 1980, increasing
over 4,000% as gold rose 2,300%.
The catalyst that pushed gold from $400
to $850 in the first month of 1980 was
Russia’s post-Christmas 1979 invasion of
Afghanistan. Something like that happened
recently, with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine –
two nations where 30% of the world’s wheat
and corn exports and over 50% of Europe’s
energy originate. This has led to massive
price increases and shortages in Europe,
similar to the U.S. gas shortage in the 1970s.
The U.S. has since seen a shortage in fertilizer
production, leading to a rise in global hunger
and food shortages.
