Finding Rare Lincoln Cents In Circulation

It isn't often when you find a rare coin in circulation, but it happens.

Did you know that Scott Travers, a famous numismatist, once "spent" 3 valuable pennies in New York City to promote coin collecting? In 2006, he used a 1908-S Indian cent, 1909-S V.D.B. Lincoln cent, and 1914-D Lincoln cent -- and nobody has reported finding them yet!

You may be surprised to learn that there are several rare Lincoln cents that you may have a (small) chance of finding if you keep your eyes to what goes through your pocket. Some of the scarce dates include:

  • 1909-S Lincoln cent
  • 1924-D Lincoln cent
  • 1931-S Lincoln cent
