Lincoln Cent
1909-S Lincoln Cent. MS-67 RD (PCGS).
A breathtakingly beautiful example that ranks among the finest 1909-S Lincoln cents known. Vibrant tangerine and peach coloration is accented by swaths of powder blue and ivory in the fields on both sides. Fully struck and virtually pristine, with matte-like luster throughout. Just 2 coins have been graded finer by PCGS. Although produced in greater numbers than its V.D.B. counterpart, the 1909-S is rarer in the finest Mint State grades. 1,825,000 examples were struck and most are found in grades up through MS-66, but Superb survivors are rare. Fewer examples were set aside at the time of delivery and were less likely to be preserved over the years given the lack of the designer's initials on the reverse. This captivating MS-67 RD is a remarkable condition rarity that is sure to attract the most advanced Lincoln cent collectors.
