Description

Finest Known 1963 Proof Lincoln Cent, PR70 Deep Cameo PCGS

1963 1C PR70 Deep Cameo PCGS. From a substantial proof mintage in excess of three million pieces, this specimen is the first and only example to achieve the highest possible grade assessment. Thick mint frost covers the devices and provides a strong contrast against the depth of mirrored reflectivity in the fields, and, of course, there are no handling marks or other flaws of any significance to be found. Deep cherry-red color characterizes this splendid coin--the finest certified by either of the major services (12/03).
From the John Troy #1 PCGS Registry Set Collection.(#93401) (Registry values: P1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22LR, PCGS# 93401, Greysheet# 2609)
