1952-S Lincoln cents are extremely common coins in all grades spanning the gamut from well-worn condition up through MS66. Examples grading MS67 or higher are tough, not necessarily unaffordable in the eyes of series specialists and registry set collectors. Top-end MS67 examples have taken a pretty penny in auctions.
Obverse Description
Bust of Abraham Lincoln framed by IN GOD WE TRUST on the top periphery. The word LIBERTY to the left of the portrait and the date and mintmark (If any) positioned on the right side.
Reverse Description
Wheat ears flanking the words ONE CENT, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM on the top perimeter.
