The 1910-S Lincoln cent is considered a semi-key date coin, as are all mint marked Lincoln cents dating before 1916. It, along with the 1913-S Lincoln penny are much easier to find in circulated grades than the other early S-mint Lincoln cents. Also similar to the other early branch-mint Lincolns, the 1910-S is scarce in uncirculated grades, though not nearly as much so as many other examples. Also, unlike most early branch-mint Lincolns, the 1910-S features a rather decent strike.
Obverse Description

Reverse Description
Wheat ears flanking the words ONE CENT, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM on the top perimeter.
