Green CAC Proof Lincoln Cent mintages fell again in 1916, in what would be the final year of the classic proof series. The likely reason for discontinuation was declining sales. As John Dannreuther reports, the ending for this format of American coinage was abrupt, coming from a single exchange from Mint Director F.J.H. von Engelken to Superintendent of the Philadelphia Mint Adam Joyce: "[e]ffective at once, you will please discontinue the manufacture of proof coins." The order was carried out within a day.
