      General Notes: The 1946 Philadelphia Mint Lincoln cent is very common in circulated grades though, like a few other Philly-minted Lincoln cents from the 1940s and 1950s is remarkably tough in grades of MS65 or better. This issue is rare in grades of MS67, giving registry set collectors who wish to buy a premium example for their collections a considerable challenge.
