This listing is for one 1931-D Wheat Penny. Options available for multiple grade levels. The photo above is an example of a Fine grade (F or F-12).

Only 4,480,000 pennies were struck at the Denver Mint in 1931, making 1931-D the second most scarce of dates in the 1930's, and a semi-key date wheat penny. By contrast, 1931 wheat pennies struck at the Philadelphia mint numbered 19,396,000; about 4.3 times as many.

The Lincoln cent has been struck by the United States Mint since 1909. The obverse or heads side was designed by Victor David Brenner, as was the original reverse, depicting two stalks of wheat (thus "wheat pennies", struck 1909–1958).

In 1917, a year which saw Barber's death in office at age 77, the wartime economy caused a shortage of cents. At this time, the Lincoln cent had not yet become dominant in circulation; four-fifths of the cents in circulation were of the older Indian Head design. Demand for the cent continued to increase when a luxury tax was instituted, and cents were needed to make change. In 1918, Brenner's initials were restored to the coin, appearing where Lincoln's shoulder is cut off by the rim of the coin.
