Historical Significance

The 2009 Lincoln Commemorative Silver Dollars were issued to celebrate the bicentennial of Abraham Lincoln's birth. The U.S. Mint released four different silver dollar designs throughout 2009, each representing a different aspect of Lincoln's life: his birth and early childhood in Kentucky, his formative years in Indiana, his professional life in Illinois, and his presidency in Washington D.C. These coins are part of a significant numismatic tribute to one of America's most revered presidents.

Estimated Value

$90 USD - $10,000 USD (for the pair, depending on the specific designs and market conditions)
