There are shells on the four corners of the side with the denomination(5). The one the left will say (19) and the shell on the right will have the rest of the date.
The "S" mint mark is used by the San Francisco mint and is located just below the date on the 1941 Lincoln cent.
That date is still found in circulation today and is face value. All JEFFERSON nickels from 1938 to date have the word LIBERTY on them.

You are talking about a 1909 Lincoln cent. The S is the mintmark found on the face of the coin below the date. The VDB is the designer's initials found at the bottom rim on the reverse.
All 3 cent pieces issued by the US Mint had dates. If yours is worn so the date is not on it anymore then you will have to be know whether it is a silver 3 cent or a nickel 3 cent. The nickel 3 cent is about the size of a dime and the silver 3 cent is smaller than a dime. Without a date the value of these coins would be about $1-$2 for the silver 3 cent and about 25-50 cents for the nickel 3 cent.
No such coin. A penny is one cent so a 2 cent penny does not exist. There are US Two- Cent pieces but a date is needed.
Two Proof sets were issued in 1960 the only difference is the Lincoln cent, one set has a large date cent and the other is a small date cent. Retail value of the large date is $23.00 the small date is $33.00 the numeral 0 is smaller then normal for the small date.
It was July 7,1959
It depends on the date, condition and the type. There were two main styles of three cent pieces, there was the 3 cent silver which was tiny and the 3 cent nickel which was large (the 3 cent silver had a star on the obverse, the 3 cent nickel had a head of Liberty on the obverse). Without knowing the date or at least the type, it is impossible to answer your question.
"BEATRIX KONINGIN DER NEDERLANDEN" is Dutch for "Beatrix, Queen of the Netherlands", and "1G" is an abbreviation for "One Gulden", the Gulden being the currency of the Netherlands. A 1970 1G coin would be very rare indeed, as Beatrix did not become Queen until 1980. Assuming that the date is in fact 1980, you probably have a coin from the Netherlands Antilles (a group of Dutch-owned islands in the Caribbean). The back of the coin, in addition to having the date and "1G", would have the words "NEDERLANDSE ANTILLEN". It's worth a couple of dollars in Uncirculated condition, and less than a dollar in circulated condition.
Two Proof sets were issued in 1960 the only difference is the Lincoln cent, one set has a large date cent and the other is a small date cent. Retail value of the large date is $33.00 the small date is $41.00 the numeral 0 is smaller then normal for the small date. Issue price from the Mint for this set was $2.10.
