2009 Lincoln Silver Dollar
In 2009, The US Mint Issued an Interesting Silver Dollar
Known as the Abraham Lincoln Commerative Silver Dollar, it features the likeness of Abraham Lincoln, the date, mint mark, "In God We Trust" and "LIBERTY"
The packaging is quite handsome and compact, unlike other commeratives that come in huge boxes. The small profile is handy for storage.
Close Up of Obverse and Reverse
It's amazing the amount of detail in the coin, you can even see a wort or something on his cheek. Way to go for historical accuracy.
The reverse says "ONE DOLLAR" and "E PLURIBUS UNUM" and "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" along with Abraham Lincoln's signature at the bottom. The center of the reverse has a portion of the famous Gettysburg address.
We here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain - that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom - and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
I hope you enjoyed a close up look at the Lincoln Silver Dollar
It's been my pleasure writing about and photographing this unique coin. For such a handsome coin, I'm surprised they go for so cheap on eBay! Maybe someone here would like to add this coin to their stack.
Bless the Most High!

Beautiful piece of silver, a great commemorative coin for Lincoln!
Yes, I agree!
I have that. I think it is one of the better commemoratives.

I am not from the USA, but I heard stories that nowadays Americans have less and less freedom. I heard that they used to call the USA the "land of the free". I also heard people saying "Make America great again".
I hope that the people in the USA get back their former rights again. I wish all the best. Greetings from Hungary.
That's what we're fighting for. Once we are no longer trusting God, we no longer will have liberty. The original Seal of the United States was "Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God." Foreign or domestic, rebellion to tyrants is (or once was) part of the fabric of the American people.
I wish that would be a part of the fabric of the Hungarian people too. Our government is a suppressing/oppressing, thief, tyrant, dictatorship-like government. The government intentionally keep many people under the local minimum wage. Including me.
