Description:
Important 1922 Plain Cent, Die Pair Two, MS63 Brown
1922 No D 1C Strong Reverse MS63 Brown PCGS. Die Pair Two. From 1793 through 2007, the Philadelphia Mint coined cents (either large or small) in every year except 1815 and 1922. However, certain pieces coined at the Denver Mint in 1922 lacked a mintmark. This example is one such coin. While varieties exist with partially visible mintmarks, few of the "Die Pair Two" coins survive with the mintmark entirely absent, and full Mint State representatives are extremely rare. Certain characteristics are required for any example to be attributed as a Die Pair Two coin. Most of the obverse design details are quite weak, due to extensive die use and repair, although TRUST is strong and the final digit 2 in the date is sharp. TY of LIBERTY are both sharper than the remaining letters. In contrast to this weak and worn obverse die, the reverse die is crisp with all details sharply defined.
At one time, PCGS would only certify these Die Pair Two pieces, although now they also certify examples from Die Pair One (which they call Weak D) and Die Pair Three (which are designated Weak Reverse).
This example is impressive with full satin luster on both sides. Although designated by PCGS as "Brown," considerable faded orange mint luster is still visible, especially on the reverse. In fact, enough orange luster remains on the reverse that a case could be made for a Red and Brown designation. A few tiny surface marks have taken this out of the Choice Mint State category, yet it is an exceptional quality example. Population: 9 in 63 Brown, 5 finer (10/08).
From The Jack Lee Estate Lincoln Cent Registry Set.(Registry values: P2) (#3285)
