The 2009 Abraham Lincoln Silver Dollar was issued to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the birth of the 16th President of the United States. During the year, the United States Mint also would also issue a series of four different reverse designs for the 2009 Lincoln Cents, which represented different stages of Lincoln’s life. As part of the commemorative coin program, a special product was created which incorporated both the silver dollar and newly designed cents.

The silver dollar obverse features a portrait of Abraham Lincoln, which is symbolic of Lincoln’s strength and resolve, was inspired by Daniel Chester French’s sculpture which resides at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC. The obverse inscriptions read “In God We Trust”, “Liberty”, and the date “2009”.

The reverse of the coin features the final 43 words of Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address surrounded by a laurel wreath. The central inscription reads, “We here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this Nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.” An inscription above reads “United States of America”, and lettering on banners below read “One Dollar” and “E Pluribus Unum” with a reproduction of Lincoln’s signature.

Proof and uncirculated versions of the coin were produced at the Philadelphia Mint.

The US Mint offered the Lincoln Coin and Chronicles Set and contained the proof version of the 2009 Lincoln Silver Dollar, all four proof 2009 Lincoln Cents, a reproduction of the Gettysburg Address in Lincoln’s handwriting, and a reproduction of a portrait of Abraham Lincoln.
