Description
This listing is for one 1924-S Wheat Penny, as pictured. The majority 1924-S cents are a lower grade (G - F), & the value for this date & mint is heavily dependent on the grade. This is an example of a very high grade, with little wear & it is free of blemishes, corrosion or damage. If you are looking for a value on a 1924-S, the grade is critical. Lower grades will fetch about $2 - $10, while grades at or above EF (extremely fine) will be worth about $40 to $150. All three (Philadelphia, Denver & San Francisco) United States Mint locations were striking the Lincoln Wheat Penny again as of 1924, though mintage figures were still low overall. in fact, 1924 saw another semi-key date Lincoln Cent; 1924-D - one that is right on par with 1911-S in terms of rarity. With only 2,520,000 struck, the 1924-D (Denver Mint) Lincoln Penny is indeed a scarce coin for collectors, & this fact is reflected in high pricing across the grading spectrum for this coin. Get ready to drop a minimum of $40 on a low-end circulated 1924-D wheat cent - & more than $500 if you can even locate a Brilliant Uncirculated example. No doubt, the 1924-D Lincoln Cent is one of the toughest regular-issue 1920s Lincoln Wheat Penny coins, & presents a real challenge to anyone who wants to buy one. Thankfully for coin collectors on a budget, the 1924 (Philadelphia Mint) & 1924-S (San Francisco Mint) issues are generally much less costly than the 1924-D. 1924-S Wheat Penny - EF-40 Grade / Condition - San Francisco Mint - 1924 S Wheat Ear Cent 1924-S Wheat Penny - Xf | Extremely Fine Grade/Condition San Francisco Mint 1924 S Ear Cent
