Description
1951-S Lincoln Cent, MS68 Red
First Coin in This Grade at Auction
Tied for Finest Known
1951-S 1C MS68 Red PCGS. Ex: Whispering Pines. Although PCGS
and NGC list a total of nine 1951-S Lincoln cents in MS68 Red (two
at PCGS, seven at NGC), none of these pieces has yet appeared at
auction. Thus, the Whispering Pines example is introducing what
will be many collectors' first opportunity to acquire a top-tier
example of this late-series San Francisco issue. The coin yields
uniform pumpkin-orange luster without blemish or abrasion. A slight
bit of softness on the top of the O in ONE is the only mentionable
strike weakness. Population: 2 in 68 Red, 0 finer (11/24).(Registry values: N1793)From The Whispering Pines Collection.
