The United States one-cent coin, commonly known as a penny, is a unit of currency equaling one one-hundredth of a United States dollar. The cent's symbol is ¢. Its obverse has featured the profile of President Abraham Lincoln since 1909, the centennial of his birth. From 1959 (the sesquicentennial of Lincoln's birth) to 2008, the reverse featured the Lincoln Memorial. Four different reverse designs in 2009 honored Lincoln's 200th birthday and a new, permanent reverse - the Union Shield - was introduced in 2010. The coin is 0.75 inches (19.05 mm) in diameter and 0.061 inches (1.55 mm) in thickness. The U.S. Mint's official name for a penny is "cent"[2] and the U.S. Treasury's official name is "one cent piece".[3] The colloquial term penny derives from the British coin of the same name, the pre-decimal version of which had a similar value. In American English, pennies is the plural form, other plural forms pence and pee (standard use in British English) are not used. As of 2012, it costs the U.S. Mint 2.41 cents to make a cent because of the cost of materials and production.[4] This figure includes the Mint’s fixed components for distribution and fabrication, estimated at $13 million in FY 2011. It also includes Mint overhead allocated to the penny, which was $17.7 million for 2011. Fixed costs and overhead would have to be absorbed by other circulating coins without the penny.[5] The loss in profitability due to producing the one cent coin in the United States for the year of 2011 is $60,200,000. This is an increase from 2010, the year before, which had a production loss of $27,400,000 Cent (Penny) United States Value    0.01 of a U.S. dollar Mass    2.5 g (0.080 troy oz) Diameter    19.05 mm (0.750 in) Thickness    1.55 mm (0.061 in) Edge    Plain Composition    1982–present copper-plated zinc 97.5% Zn, 2.5% Cu Years of minting    1793–present United States currency and coinage Topics    Federal Reserve System Federal Reserve Note U.S. dollar U.S. Mint Bureau of Engraving and Printing Mutilated currency Current coinage    Cent (1¢) Nickel (5¢) Dime (10¢) Quarter (25¢) Half dollar (50¢) Dollar ($1) Bullion coinage    America the Beautiful Silver Bullion Coins American Buffalo American Gold Eagle American Platinum Eagle American Silver Eagle Paper money    $1 $2 $5 $10 $20 $50 $100 Larger denominations See also    Bicentennial coinage Commemoratives Early Commemoratives Modern Commemoratives Confederate dollar Fake denominations Obsolete denominations Mill Coin production In God We Trust E pluribus unum Nicknames Star note [hide] v t e Coinage of the United States Cent (1¢)    Chain (1793) Wreath (1793) Liberty Cap (1793–1796) Classic Head (1808–1814) Matron Head (1816–1839) Large cent (Braided Hair) (1835–1857) Flying Eagle cent (1856–1858) Indian Head (1859–1909) 1943 steel cent 1955 doubled-die cent 1974 aluminium cent Lincoln cent (1909–present) Nickel (5¢) (Half dime)    Flowing Hair (1794–1795) Draped Bust (1796-1797, 1800-1805) Capped Bust (1829–1837) Seated Liberty (1837–1873) Shield (1866–1883) Liberty Head (1883–1913) Buffalo (1913–1938) Jefferson (1938–present) Dime (10¢)    Disme (1792) Draped Bust (1796-1807) Capped Bust (1809–1837) Seated Liberty (1837–1891) Barber (1892–1916) Mercury (1916–1945) Roosevelt (1946–present) Quarter dollar (25¢)    Draped Bust (1796-1807) Capped Bust (1815–1839) Seated Liberty (1839–1891) Barber (1892–1916) Standing Liberty (1916–1930) Washington (1931–present) Half dollar (50¢)    Flowing Hair (1794–1795) Draped Bust (1796–1807) Capped Bust (1807–1839) Seated Liberty (1839–1891) Barber (1892–1915) Walking Liberty (1916–1947) Franklin (1948–1963) Kennedy (1964–present) Dollar ($1)    Flowing Hair (1794–1795) Draped Bust (1795–1804) 1804 silver (1804) Gobrecht (1836–1873) Seated Liberty (1836–1873) Gold (1849–1889) Trade (1873–1885) Morgan (1878–1904; 1921) Peace (1921–1935) Eisenhower (1971–1978) Anthony (1979–1981; 1999) Silver Eagle (1986–present) Sacagawea (2000–present) Presidential (2007–present) Gold    Quarter eagle (1796–1929) Three-dollar piece (1854–1889) Half eagle (1795–1929) Eagle (1795–1933) Double eagle (1850–1933) Gold Eagle (1986–present) Gold Buffalo (2006–present) First Spouse gold bullion coins (2007–present) Turban Head eagle Indian Head gold pieces Indian Head eagle Saint-Gaudens double eagle Other    Half cent (1793–1857) Two-cent piece (1864–1873) Three-cent piece (1851–1889) Twenty-cent piece (1875–1878) Early United States commemorative coins (1893–1954) Modern United States commemorative coins (1982–present) Platinum Eagle (1997–present) America the Beautiful Silver Bullion Coins (2010–present) Abraham Lincoln i/ˈeɪbrəhæm ˈlɪŋkən/ (February 12, 1809 – April 15, 1865) was the 16th President of the United States, serving from March 1861 until his assassination in April 1865. Lincoln successfully led his country through its greatest constitutional, military and moral crisis – the American Civil War – preserving the Union while ending slavery, and promoting economic and financial modernization. Reared in a poor family on the western frontier, Lincoln was mostly self-educated, and became a country lawyer, a Whig Party leader, Illinois state legislator during the 1830s, and a one-term member of the United States House of Representatives during the 1840s. After a series of debates in 1858 that gave national visibility to his opposition to the expansion of slavery, Lincoln lost a Senate race to his arch-rival, Stephen A. Douglas. Lincoln, a moderate from a swing state, secured the Republican Party nomination. With almost no support in the South, Lincoln swept the North and was elected president in 1860. His election was the signal for seven southern slave states to declare their secession from the Union and form the Confederacy. The departure of the Southerners gave Lincoln's party firm control of Congress, but no formula for compromise or reconciliation was found, and the war came. When the North enthusiastically rallied behind the national flag after the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861, Lincoln concentrated on the military and political dimensions of the war effort. His goal was now to reunify the nation. As the South was in a state of insurrection, Lincoln exercised his authority to suspend habeas corpus in that situation, arresting and detaining thousands of suspected secessionists without their trials. Lincoln prevented British recognition of the Confederacy by skillfully handling the Trent affair in late 1861. His efforts toward the abolition of slavery include issuing his Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, encouraging the border states to outlaw slavery, and helping push through Congress the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which finally freed all the black slaves nationwide in December 1865. Lincoln closely supervised the war effort, especially the selection of top generals, including commanding general Ulysses S. Grant. Lincoln brought leaders of various factions of his party into his cabinet and pressured them to cooperate. Under Lincoln's leadership, the Union set up a naval blockade that shut down the South's normal trade, took control of the border slave states at the start of the war, gained control of communications with gunboats on the southern river systems, and tried repeatedly to capture the Confederate capital at Richmond, Virginia. Each time a general failed, Lincoln substituted another until finally Grant succeeded in 1865. An exceptionally astute politician deeply involved with power issues in each state, he reached out to War Democrats and managed his own re-election in the 1864 presidential election. As the leader of the moderate faction of the Republican party, Lincoln found his policies and personality were "blasted from all sides": Radical Republicans demanded harsher treatment of the South, War Democrats desired more compromise, Copperheads despised him, and irreconcilable secessionists plotted his death.[3] Politically, Lincoln fought back with patronage, by pitting his opponents against each other, and by appealing to the American people with his powers of oratory.[4] His Gettysburg Address of 1863 became the most quoted speech in American history.[5] It was an iconic statement of America's dedication to the principles of nationalism, republicanism, equal rights, liberty, and democracy. At the close of the war, Lincoln held a moderate view of Reconstruction, seeking to reunite the nation speedily through a policy of generous reconciliation in the face of lingering and bitter divisiveness. Six days after the surrender of Confederate commanding general Robert E. Lee, however, Lincoln was assassinated by actor and Confederate sympathizer John Wilkes Booth. Lincoln's assassination was the first assassination of a U.S. president and sent the nation into mourning.
