Jaime Hernandez

The 1935-S Lincoln Cent is very common in circulated grades. However, it is one of the scarcer dates in Gem condition. Examples in MS64 and MS65 are hard to find but with enough searching they can be found raw or certified. In MS66 condition most examples have been graded and command a significant premium. Finding examples nicer than MS67 is almost impossible and very few in this grade or higher have surfaced over the years.
