The 1939-D Lincoln cent, like so many other late-1930s branch-mint pennies, is extremely common in all grades through MS66. At the grade threshold of MS67 offerings become a little scarcer, and higher-grading examples are rare. But supplies are adequate to satisfy the average collector.
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.
