Expert Comments

Jaime Hernandez

The 1937-S Lincoln Cent is fairly common for the series. Examples up to MS67 condition are plentiful. However, in MS67+ or higher they are scarce. Overall, collectors can be picky and find nice coins since they were struck well and many examples were preserved in great condition.
