General Notes: The 1971 doubled die Lincoln cent is a lesser-known variety that isn't quite as popular among the general collecting base as the 1969-S or 1972 doubled dies but nevertheless does have a following among some series enthusiasts. Doubling is minor but can be seen in the inscriptions LIBERTY and IN GOD WE TRUST. Perhaps a few hundred examples exist across all grades.
