LINCOLN PENNIES NOT SEEN
Collectors Estimated to Have Thirty
Million.
Initials of Designer on Those FRS
Issued Enhance Their Numis-
matte Value.

Passing over the interest aroused by
their first issuance, people are now ask
ing what has become Of the Lincoln cent.
Up 10 the first Of August 17l669.529 had
been issued. the Philadelphia mint. which
coins all the copper coins. turning them
out at the rate Of 100000 per day. Yet.
considering the number placed in circula-
ton, they are comparatively scarce. That
is to say. while they are sufficiently cur
rent as no longer 10 cause much interest.
they are not found as often as they
might be expected from the number
coined.
Nearly thirty million of them-about
Is. as. O00-have been secured by collectors
and individuals and are not In circula-
ton These are those having on them
the initials Of the designer of the coin,
the V. d. b. representing the name of
Victor d. Bremen. This does not ex-
plain the fast that while there are over
14O, OOO, 900 in circulation they are rather
scarce. however.
A. Pratt Andrew, who is In charge OF
the Philadelphia mint at the present time
is inclined to think that many of them
have been laid aside by those first re-
ceiving them with the idea that they are
special coins designed 20 commemorate
the Lincoln centennial and that they viii
eventually become as scarce as the Co
lumbar coins issued in honor OF the Co.
lumbar celebration and exposition.
The idea is erroneous. for the Lincoln
cent viii displace its predecessor, the
present type, which bears the head of ar
Indian. and will be permanently coined
at least until a new design supplants it
The latter will not occur for considerable,
time, probably for the government /:
loath TO make many such changes.
The new coin is OF good design and
honors a president who is the only ont
thus honored. The change made from
the preceding type was a good one, anC
