While circulating San Francisco coins are no longer made they were once common. Your best chance of finding one in circulation is the cent. Nearly all wheat cent have an S mint mark version.
Although like I stated S mint coins were fairly common it is still one of favorite finds. Even the ones I find from the late 60s and early 70s are cool to me. I will keep them even though I know they will have little extra value. Most proof or special coins now carry the S mint mark and while you may find some in circulation they were made just for collectors.
Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 1 Cent / United States
Year: 1953-S
Mintage: 181,835,000
Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin and Zinc
