Description
Condition Rarity 1910-S Cent
MS67 Red
1910-S 1C MS67 Red NGC. The 1910-S is common in Mint State.
David Lange, in his Complete Guide to Lincoln Cents, writes
that, "Original rolls were known as late as the 1970s, and small
hoards of red or red-brown coins were being marketed even in the
1980s. True gems are easy to find, and they appear with more
frequency than for other S-mint Lincoln cents before 1929."Lange's assertions notwithstanding, specimens in the lofty grade of MS67 Red, such as the present coin, are anything but common. Indeed, NGC and PCGS have graded a mere four examples at this grade level/color designation, and none finer. Copper-orange and yellow-gold luster adorn the impeccably preserved surfaces, and a well directed strike results in strong definition on the design elements.(Registry values: N1793)
