      General Notes: The 1920-S Lincoln cent is a semi-key coin that is readily available in all circulated grades but is much tougher to find in uncirculated condition. Most of the uncirculated pieces encountered are either Brown or Red-Brown, with relatively few specimens grading as fully Red gems.
