Jaime Hernandez

The 1941-S Lincoln Cent is one of the most common issues in the series. It is very common in circulated grades. In Uncirculated grades it is also very common up to about MS65 condition and can be easily found in Uncirculated rolls.

In MS66 condition it is a lot tougher but enough coins are out there too meet collectors demands that one can be purchased inexpensively in this condition. In MS67 condition it is also one of the more common issues in this grade for the series and most collectors with a decent budget should be able to afford one. Anything grading higher than MS67 is a very scarce coin and a condition census coin representing one of the finest examples for this issue.

These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.
