The 1935 Philadelphia Lincoln cent is an extremely common coin in all circulated grades and even into the Red Gem levels. Higher-end pieces, those grading better than MS66, are perhaps most attractive to registry set collectors ' folks who vie for the highest-quality examples and are willing to pay a pretty penny for the privilege.
