What is a 1979-S Lincoln Memorial Penny?

The 1979-S Proof Lincoln Penny (Memorial Reverse) is a coin that was minted at the San Francisco mint. It has a legal tender value of $0.01. As a "Proof" coin, it was minted in a limited quantity, which makes it considered more collectible than "business strike" or "mint strike" coins which are intended for circulation. The mintage of this coin is unknown and is therefore considered very rare at a minimum. This coin does not contain any notable amounts of precious metals.
