1935-P Lincoln Cent PCGS MS66RD Bright Red Wheat Penny! Paid $34.04 total ($29.55 bid + $4.49 shipping) in 10-bidder eBay auction 6/4/2023, at Connor's suggestion. Several of the other bids were clustered around $25 + $4 shipping = $29 total. However, most others on eBay routinely sell for $35-40, and mine was the lowest priced PCGS example sold over past 2-months on eBay.

Expert Comments

Jaime Hernandez

The 1935-P Lincoln cent has a very high mintage for the series, making it a common coin in circulated grades. In Uncirculated condition it can be purchased very inexpensively up to about MS65 condition. In MS66 the price about doubles from an MS65 price, but most collectors can still afford MS66 examples. In MS67 it attracts mostly very serious Lincoln Cent collectors as it is somewhat expensive in this condition. In MS68 it is rare and very expensive that very few collectors can own an example.

Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.
