The 2015-S Proof Lincoln Shield cent was struck at the San Francisco Mint with a production of approximately 1.18 million pieces. The slight decline from prior years reflected the ongoing evolution of the proof set collector market. The coin features the standard proof finish with deep cameo contrast, struck on a carefully prepared planchet using polished dies.
The 2015 proof cent continues the Shield reverse's clean translation to the proof format. The design's bold lines and geometric patterns produce a striking visual effect when rendered with the mirror-and-frost technique. San Francisco's proof production for the Shield series maintains a consistent level of quality that collectors have come to expect. Each coin is individually inspected before packaging in the annual proof set.
