penny with odd picture

[fladetector]

New to detecting. Found a penny from 2009 on the back has a picture of a guy sitting on a log reading a book with what looks like a sand scoo with a long handle. Anybody seen one before.

That's old Abe after a long day detecting looking over his finds.

In 2009, the mint produced 4 different reverses for the penny. This is the second one, I believe.

Abe Lincoln on the log reading, with a mallet to split the log with the wedge in it.
