Jaime Hernandez

The 1956-D Lincoln Cent is common in MS66 condition or lower. In MS66+ it is much more difficult to find. In MS67 condition it is scarce but enough examples have been found to keep prices affordable for most serious Lincoln Cent collectors. MS67+ examples or higher are almost unheard of and are extremely scarce.
