      Entry Details

      Denomination (Long): Cent
      Desg: MS
      Mint Mark: S
      Composition: 95% copper; 5% zinc & tin
      Mintage: 15,180,000
      Strike Type: Business
      Coinage Type: Lincoln, Wheat reverse (Bronze)
      Coinage Years: 1909-1958
      Mint Location: San Francisco
      Diameter: 19
      Weight (Grams): 3.11
      Designer: Victor D. Brenner
      Edge: Plain
      Obverse Description: Bust of Abraham Lincoln framed by IN GOD WE TRUST on the top periphery. The word LIBERTY to the left of the portrait and the date and mintmark (If any) positioned on the right side.
      Reverse Description: Wheat ears flanking the words ONE CENT, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM on the top perimeter.
      General Notes: This S-mint Lincoln is quite common in all grades as high as MS66 and offers enough survivors in the MS67 range to satisfy even the most discriminating of registry set collectors. As this coin has an adequate number of examples active in the marketplace, one should find little challenge in seeking the top-notch specimens. Thankfully, the quality of color and strike among this and many other late-1930s Lincoln is among the best a numismatist could hope to find.
