Poll on the 2009 Lincoln Cent Designs

Halfhunter06

I opened my new issue of the Numismatist today and gave a good long look at the 4 new penny designs for next year. I am really displeased with the 4th design representing Lincolns tenure as president. Lincoln giving the Gettysburg Address would have been MUCH better of a choice. So i want to ask my fellow Numismatists, which would you prefer? The capital building, the Gettysburg Address, or something else.

They are more or less, HD drawings of the Reverse Designs

Walmann

In truth very disappointed, they should have went with a single design, but having gone in the direction of four designs its a crime that they did not commerative true acheivements in his life, seeing the nation through the civil war, ending slavery, or the purchase of Alaska amongest others.

I would have rather seen a retro "Wheat Back" from 1909, etal.

I am doing a poll on bringing back the wheat back and thus far, 48% of the 76 who responded want wheat. The other 52% either do not want the design or do not care. No non wheat group exceeds 48%.

I don't see your point!! If his trip wasn't what it was we wouldn't have so much history about what scum decided to become a legend in the wrong way.
