Spence Moderator United States 34395 Posts	Posted 06/25/2023 10:12 pm @scoo, can you please add a well-lit close up pic of the mintmark? Thx. It looks like an S to me, but I can't see enough to locate the potential P.

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 06/25/2023 11:03 pm I did an enhancement of your image in Photoshop. It's a San Francisco 'S' mint mark. As noted above, there were no 'P' mint marks on 1971 Lincoln Memorial Cents. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 94795 Posts	Posted 06/25/2023 11:11 pm agreed, an S mint mark. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
