The 2008 Lincoln Memorial penny, valued at face value, is a popular coin among collectors. While it is possible to store these coins with the hope

The 2008-D penny has the highest mintage of any other penny, with a total of 2,849,600,000 issued from the Denver Mint. This is indicated by the “D” mint mark located on the obverse of the coin, just below the year “2008”.

The 2008 penny has a face value of $0.01 when in circulation. However, if the coin is in uncirculated condition, it can be sold for a higher price. The 2008 d penny is valued at $0.30 in uncirculated condition, while the coin without a mint mark is also worth $0.30.
