CoinWeek Giveaway # 649 Sponsored by…2026 Uncirculated P & D Mint Set w/ Lincoln Cents

CoinWeek Giveaway #649 gives collectors the chance to win one of the most historically distinctive annual sets the United States Mint has produced.

The 2026 United States Mint Uncirculated Coin Set celebrates America’s 250th anniversary with 20 coins, two official Mint cards, and several one-year-only designs. Together, the coins trace the nation’s story from the Mayflower Compact to the Gettysburg Address.

However, two small coins give this set its greatest importance: the Philadelphia and Denver 2026 Lincoln cents.

The Only Set With Both Uncirculated 2026 Lincoln Cents

The United States Mint ended production of Lincoln cents for general circulation in 2025. Nevertheless, the Mint continued the denomination in 2026 for annual collector products.

As a result, collectors will not find 2026 Lincoln cents in pocket change, bank rolls, or ordinary circulation. The 2026 Uncirculated Coin Set provides the only official Mint set that places both the Philadelphia and Denver uncirculated Lincoln cents together.

The Philadelphia cent carries no mintmark. Meanwhile, the Denver cent displays the familiar “D” mintmark. Both coins feature the Mint’s uncirculated quality finish.

Each cent also carries the historic dual date “1776 ~ 2026.” Therefore, the date immediately separates these coins from every regular Lincoln cent that came before them.

Victor D. Brenner’s portrait of Abraham Lincoln remains on the obverse. The reverse retains the Union Shield design introduced in 2010. That design represents Lincoln’s preservation of the United States as one nation.

Consequently, each 2026 cent connects two defining American events: the nation’s declaration of independence and Lincoln’s defense of the Union during the Civil War.

Lincoln cent specialists will need both coins to complete their 2026 date-and-mint collections. Moreover, their collector-only status gives this set significance beyond the Semiquincentennial celebration.

Twenty Coins From Philadelphia and Denver

The 2026 United States Mint Uncirculated Coin Set contains two cards of 10 encapsulated coins each. One card holds coins from the Philadelphia Mint, while the other contains coins from the Denver Mint.

The back of each card displays a certificate of authenticity and detailed coin specifications.

In addition to the Lincoln cents, each card contains a Jefferson nickel, Emerging Liberty dime, Enduring Liberty half dollar, Native American dollar, and all five 2026 Semiquincentennial quarters.

The five quarters commemorate:

The Mayflower Compact
The Revolutionary War
The Declaration of Independence
The United States Constitution
The Gettysburg Address

Together, these designs highlight important stages in the development, defense, and expansion of American liberty.

One-Year Designs Mark America’s 250th Anniversary

Liberty returns to the dime’s obverse for the first time since 1945. In addition, the Enduring Liberty half dollar replaces the familiar Kennedy design with a one-year depiction of the Statue of Liberty.

The Jefferson nickel also carries the special “1776 ~ 2026” dual date.

Finally, the 2026 Native American dollar honors Polly Cooper and the Oneida people. Its reverse depicts Cooper sharing corn with General George Washington. The design recognizes the Oneida Nation’s generosity, courage, and support for the Continental Army at Valley Forge.

Enter CoinWeek Giveaway #649

The 2026 United States Mint Uncirculated Coin Set combines 20 Philadelphia and Denver coins with several historic, one-year designs.

Still, the two collectible Lincoln cents give this prize its strongest appeal. Collectors cannot pull these coins from circulation. Instead, the Mint created them specifically for its 2026 annual sets.

Enter CoinWeek Giveaway #649 for your chance to add both uncirculated 2026 Lincoln cents, and the complete 20-coin United States Mint Uncirculated Coin Set, to your collection.
