Value of 1965 Lincoln Memorial Cent

The 1965 Lincoln Memorial Cents are very common and were struck in all three mints (under the Philadelphia Mint Mark) during the year of 1966. Sharp strikes will be few and far between, as is the planchet quality. Coins were produced this year for Special Mint Sets. These coins will normally show very well and are easily distinguishable between the set and a circulation strike because of the sharpness of the design.

The text on the Lincoln one cent coin reads as follows. Obverse: LIBERTY; Date; IN GOD WE TRUST | Reverse: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA; E PLURIBUS UNUM; ONE CENT.
