1941-S One Cent MS RD PL
Details
The 1941-S Lincoln cent is a common coin up through the grade of about MS65, with pieces grading higher than that a little tougher to find but by no means impossible, not at least until getting north of the MS67 threshold. Overall, 1941-S pennies are easy to locate in quantity, and one should have little difficulty finding nice specimens with decent strike and nice eye appeal.
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.
