      Obverse Description: Bust of Abraham Lincoln framed by IN GOD WE TRUST on the top periphery. The word LIBERTY to the left of the portait and the date postioned on the right side.

      General Notes: 1979-S Type 2 proof Lincoln cents exhibit a clearer mintmark than the Type 1 proofs, which have a blobby-looking S. The 1979-S Type 2 proof cent came along later in the year, and numismatic experts believe approximately 15% of all 1979 Lincoln proofs bear the Type 2 mintmark. The 1979-S Type 2 mintmark is the same S that was used on both 1980 and 1981 Type 1 proofs.
