Description

1921 1C MS67 Red PCGS. A liberally frosted Superb Gem with tinges of orange iridescence about the peripheries. Although far fewer 1921 Lincolns were produced than in the previous few years, the challenge in locating a coin of this grade lies with the finicky nature of the metal itself. The 1921 is extremely difficult to acquire in top grade, as specialists have known for many years. Always susceptible to fading, spotting, etc., this impeccable, fiery example somehow managed to escape the normal pitfalls of copper coinage. Population: 9 in 67, 2 finer (9/08).
