Expert Comments

Jaime Hernandez

The 1977-D Lincoln Cent is really common from circulated grades up to about MS65 grade. In MS66 it is one of the more difficult Memorial Lincoln Cents in the series and probably the last scarcest date in MS67 and higher. In MS67 condition it is really scarce with less than a few dozen examples known and none being graded higher.
