1918 Lincoln cents are by and large common coins in circulated grades and are available in reasonable numbers into the MS grade range. In cases such as this where a decent supply of coins is available in most any grade range, up through MS65 or MS66 at least, it pays to search diligently and seek specimens with excellent strike, even color, and nice overall eye appeal.
Obverse Description
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 Description
Wheat ears flanking the words ONE CENT, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM on the top perimeter.
