1924 1c BN

Coin / United States of America / 1924 / Philadelphia / Lincoln Cents - Wheat Reverse / 1c

The 1924 Philadelphia Lincoln cent is a common coin in circulated grades and, at least for Brown and Red-Brown examples, offers decent supplies up through the Gem uncirculated levels. The 1924 Lincoln cent is not without its numismatic challenges, and finding nice pieces with decent color, strong strike, and few or no carbon spots should rank as top objectives for any collector or dealer seeking examples.
