1915-D One Cent MS RD
Details
The 1915-D Lincoln is a scarce semi-key coin on the order of the other early D-mintmarked pennies, though this piece typically trades at lower price levels than other pre-1917 Lincoln cents of similar scarceness. Many come well struck and supplies of Red Gems are reasonable through at least MS65.
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.
