August 13, 2009 The 1940 Lincoln Cent is not considered to be a scarce cent. It was produced at 3 US mints: Philadelphia which is shown as 1940-P in this list, Denver which is shown as 1940-D in this list and San Francisco which is shown as 1940-S in this list. To determine which coin you have it will be necessary to locate the mint mark. This mark consists of a small letter located on the obverse [heads] side of the coin just under the date. A "D" is for Denver. An "S" is for San Francisco. If there is no letter the coin was minted at Philadelphia. The circulated value of this coin ranges from 2 cents to 15 cent depending upon the actual condition of the coin. The uncirculated values for these coins are shown in the following list: Uncirculated Grades......1940-P..........1940-D.............1940-S MS60....................................$5................$5.....................$5 MS63....................................$9.................$9.....................$9 MS64....................................$12.................$10................$12 MS65....................................$18................$17.................$20
