Lucky 3-Pack

Spring 2026 has arrived, and with the season of change comes our 70th quarterly edition, “Lucky,” a farewell to the fortuitous penny. First minted in 1793, the copper one-cent piece graced jean pockets, change jars, coin purses, car floors, cash registers, and the bottoms of wells and fountains with its distinct auburn sheen for over two hundred years. While the U.S. Treasury stopped minting pennies last November, 114 billion pennies remain in circulation. They’re not going away immediately. This edition honors the coin’s legacy by mimicking copper’s enduring shades of wear: the orangeish-pink “Rosewood,” the well-worn, dirty “Mocha,” and the oxidized green patina of “Mint” Mohawk Mosaic 100-lb cover stocks. Each cover is stamped with metallic copper foil and embossed on the back with the penny’s three distinct obverse designs: stalks of wheat, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Great Seal. The flip-side of each pack’s backing card contains a heartfelt ode to the cent, with a space to enshrine your luckiest pen
