About this coinHistory

Denver produced over 7.12 billion cents in 1995, bearing the "D" mintmark. The coins circulated during the year of the Oklahoma City bombing and the O. J. Simpson murder trial verdict in October. The economy was growing strongly, fueled by the early stages of the technology boom.

The 1995-D is extremely common and available in all grades. It should not be confused with the famous 1995 Doubled Die Obverse, which was a Philadelphia issue. The Denver cent carries no special premium or distinction.
