U.S. Wheat Penny Heart Hand Cut Coin Earrings

Add a meaningful touch of vintage charm to your jewelry collection with these U.S. Wheat Penny Heart Hand-Cut Coin Earrings. Each earring is crafted from a genuine Lincoln Wheat Penny and hand cut into a heart shape, creating a unique accessory that combines American history with a timeless symbol of affection.

The Lincoln Wheat Cent was introduced in 1909 to mark the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birth. Designed by sculptor Victor David Brenner, it was the first regularly circulating U.S. coin to feature a real historical figure. The reverse displays two wheat stalks surrounding the denomination, giving the coin its familiar “Wheat Penny” name. This design remained in production until 1958. 

Hand cut into heart shape showcasing the namesake wheat stocks, these vintage penny earrings preserve the character of the original coins while adding a romantic, contemporary style. Variations in date, patina, color, and surface wear make each pair one of a kind. 

Lightweight and easy to wear, they make a thoughtful gift for a partner, anniversary, birthday, history lover, coin collector, or anyone who appreciates handmade jewelry with a story.
