1913-S Lincoln Cent XF
The 1913 Lincoln cent, struck at the San Francisco Mint, represents an early chapter in one of America's most enduring numismatic series. Crafted from copper, this coin displays the distinctive 'S' mint mark beneath the date, indicating its West Coast origin. The piece survives in Extra Fine condition, preserving the clear details of its historic imagery for observers to appreciate. On the obverse, the profile of Abraham Lincoln faces right, accompanied by the familiar inscriptions of national identity and liberty. The words 'IN GOD WE TRUST' arch over the top, while 'LIBERTY' stands behind the president's shoulder, and the year '1913' is positioned ahead of him. The reverse design, created by Victor David Brenner, features two stylized wheat ears framing the central text. This side clearly displays the denomination 'ONE CENT' and the country of origin, 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', framed by the agricultural motif that gave this early era of small cents its famous nickname.
