1952-S Lincoln Cent, MS68 Red
The Sole Finest Known

1952-S 1C MS68 Red PCGS. Ex: Whispering Pines. Examples of the 1952-S in MS67 Red are abundant, earning this San Francisco issue a reputation as a common date. The most well-heeled and patience collectors seek out MS67+ Red coins, but even these high-end examples are seen with some reliability given a little time. The coin offered here, however, is in another world of rarity. It is the sole finest 1952-S known, and is a coin that all of the most advanced Registry Set collectors likely dream of owning. Vivid fire-orange hues adorn softly frosted mint luster and carbon-free surfaces, with a bold strike throughout. Eye appeal exceeds all expectations. Population: 1 in 68 Red, 0 finer (11/24).(Registry values: N991)
From The Whispering Pines Collection.
