Description

195(7) Lincoln Cent, MS66 Red
on a Honduras Centavo Planchet

195(7) 1C Lincoln Cent -- Struck on a Honduras Centavo Planchet -- MS66 Red NGC. 1.5gm. In 1956 and 1957, the U.S. mint coined copper Honduras centavos (KM-77.2). One of those centavo planchets (the present lot) was fed between Lincoln cent dies, and struck aligned with the collar die at 7 o'clock. The first three date digits are complete, and the fourth digit shows only the upper left corner, enough to suggest it is a 7. This lustrous and unabraded example retains its introductory orange-gold color.
