In Good to Very Good+ condition, it shows honest circulation wear while still offering the classic look and character collectors enjoy in older Lincoln cents. For collectors building a Wheat cent album, the 1941-S is an important San Francisco issue from the World War II era.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Lincoln cent was introduced in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1909\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e to honor the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birth, becoming the first regular-issue U.S. coin to feature a real historical figure. Designed by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVictor D.

By 1941, the Wheat cent had been part of American commerce for more than three decades. Coins from this year connect collectors to both the long-running Lincoln cent series and the beginning of America’s wartime years, just before major changes in cent composition appeared during the war.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCollectors continue to enjoy Lincoln Wheat cents for their historic design, broad date-and-mint run, and accessibility. A circulated example like this can be especially appealing because it keeps the series affordable while still offering a genuine early-1940s U.S. coin with real age behind it.
