The 1957 D Lincoln Wheat Penny is a classic piece of American coinage, minted in Denver. This penny features the iconic bust of Abraham Lincoln on the obverse side, designed by Victor D. Brenner. Lincoln is depicted in a right-facing profile, with the words "IN GOD WE TRUST" above his head, "LIBERTY" to his left, and the date "1957" with the mint mark "D" (for Denver) to the right.
The reverse side showcases two wheat ears flanking the inscriptions "ONE CENT" and "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," with "E PLURIBUS UNUM" above. This design, often referred to as the "Wheat Penny" or "Wheat Cent," was used from 1909 to 1958 and is highly collectible among numismatists.
