The 1940 Lincoln Cent with the Wheat Reverse, minted in San Francisco, is part of the larger series of Lincoln Cents first issued in 1909. This coin features the obverse image of President Abraham Lincoln and the reverse design showcasing the two wheat ears. The San Francisco Mint (S mint mark) produced a smaller number of these cents compared to other mints, making certain conditions of this coin particularly sought after by collectors. Coins from this era can vary widely in value depending on their condition, grade, and rarity among collectors.
