The 1913 Lincoln cent from Philadelphia was struck in over 76 million coins. The Federal Reserve Act was signed into law in December 1913, creating the central banking system that would reshape American monetary policy. Henry Ford introduced the moving assembly line, and the $5 workday would follow in 1914. The cent circulated in an economy on the cusp of transformation. The 1913 is a common date.
