On U.S. coins dated 1968 and later, the letter indicates the mint where the coins were struck. It's called a mint mark.
No mint mark = Philadelphia (all cents, dollars 1971-78, others 1968-79)
P = Philadelphia (1980-present)
D = Denver
S = San Francisco
Coins dated 1965-67 did not carry mint marks.
Before that, mint marks were usually - but not always - on the back side of U.S. coins. Knowing what letters to look for and where can be quite challenging. See the Related Link for specific information.
