Details
1947-S Lincoln cents are easily located in all circulated grades and are common in Mint State levels up through MS66. Examples grading MS67 or better examples are quite scarce and generally sought by registry set collectors who specialize in Lincoln cents.
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.
