Denver produced over 2.9 billion cents in 1971, another year of enormous output. The "D" mintmark below the date identifies these coins. They entered circulation during a year of major economic and political shifts, including the end of dollar-to-gold convertibility and the implementation of wage and price controls.
The 1971-D is common and easy to find in any condition. Mint-state examples are readily available from saved rolls. Collectors add this coin to their sets without difficulty or significant expense.
