Details
1951-D Lincoln cents are common in circulated grades and remain available in significant quantities through MS66. In a grade of MS67 or higher, the 1951-D Lincoln cent is a scarce coin and many registry set collectors will happily pay handsome premiums for the opportunity to own one of these premium-quality examples.
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.
