If the 1932 Lincoln penny looks a lot like the penny that is still being minted today, that is because their designs are quite similar. While this is so, the coin from 1932 is much more valuable and desirable in the eyes of collectors.
Thanks to the coin’s scarcity and the fact that it is considered to be a piece of history, the 1932 Lincoln penny is one that will never be overlooked by a serious collector.
The coin’s obverse features in the center the image of Abraham Lincoln, who is depicted in stunning detail. To the right of the President’s image is a raised marking for the 1932 year of minting. Opposite the date is a raised inscription which reads “Liberty.” Finally, the words “In God We Trust” appear arching overtop of the obverse.
The coin’s reverse has two raised inscriptions in the center. These two raised inscriptions spell out “United States of America” and “One Cent” respectively. On both the left and the right hand side of the reverse are single wheat stalks. It is these stalks that gave this coin its “Wheat Penny” nickname. Over the top of the reverse is the Latin phrase “E Pluribus Unum.”
