Denver struck over 4.5 billion cents in 1975, bearing the "D" mintmark. The combined output of Philadelphia and Denver approached 10 billion that year, a staggering number that reflected inflationary pressures and the sheer volume of everyday transactions in the American economy.
The Vietnam War ended in April with the fall of Saigon. The nation turned inward, grappling with economic recession and the aftermath of Watergate. The 1975-D cent is abundant in all grades and carries no premium. Mint-state rolls are readily available from this high-production year.
