1922 No D Lincoln Cent. FS-401, Die Pair II. Strong Reverse. MS-62 BN (PCGS).

A second outstanding Uncirculated survivor of the popular and conditionally challenged 1922 No D cent. The obverse is typically soft in strike, yet only on certain high points and, in truth, the detail on this side is superior for the variety. Sharply defined throughout the reverse, with beautiful tobacco-brown patina blanketing both sides. Uncommonly smooth for the assigned grade, this premium quality example would serve as a highlight in an advanced Lincoln cent or variety collection. Typically offered in circulated grades, multiple bidding opportunities in the same sale for Mint State 1922 No D cents of the desirable FS-401 attribution are few and far between in today's market. This BU example provides a second chance for those bidders that fail to secure the Red and Brown coin in the preceding lot. This is a rare example in its own right, of course, and given its superior quality and eye appeal for the assigned grade will also require an aggressive bidding strategy to secure.
