Jaime Hernandez

The 1985-P Lincoln Cent is very easy to find in circulation. Only in MS66 condition or higher is it scarce. In MS67 condition it's a little more difficult to find but with enough roll searching an example can easily be found. In MS68 condition they are very difficult to find and it is probably easier to buy an example than to try and find one.
