1910 One Cent MS RB
Details
The 1910 Lincoln cent struck at the Philadelphia Mint is widely collected as part of the larger Lincoln cent series. While it is relatively common in the circulated grades, it is something of a conditional rarity, becoming quite scarce in the higher-end uncirculated range. However, many rolls were saved during the time of the coin's issue and thus there are plentiful examples in the Brown and Red-Brown grades.
Obverse: Bust of Abraham Lincoln framed by IN GOD WE TRUST on the top periphery. The word LIBERTY to the left of the portrait and the date and mintmark (If any) positioned on the right side.
Reverse: Wheat ears flanking the words ONE CENT, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM on the top perimeter.
