      General Notes: The 1916 Lincoln cent is a relatively common coin from circulated through Mint State grades, with plentiful examples even into the Gem levels. As with any early Lincoln cent, quality is key, and it is best to pick examples with good strike and even color, as these will always have a ready market when the opportunity comes to sell.
