1911-S Cent, MS66 Red
CAC Approved, Tied for Finest Known

1911-S 1C MS66 Red PCGS. CAC. This piece was formerly in the Steven Duckor Collection (Central States, Heritage, 4/2020), where it was described in part as,

"This piece is among the finest Red coins certified, and it is one of only four top-grade pieces to earn CAC recognition. There is no better option for the Registry collector.

"While MS66 Red examples of this issue occasionally appear at auction, the vast majority are not from the CAC population. We have previously handled only one specific coin in this grade with CAC endorsement, a piece that we offered once in 2012 and again in 2014. It is now in unknown hands. The Duckor coin brings to the market another one of these rare opportunities to acquire one of the finest-known 1911-S cents. It is in every respect the equal of the D.L. Hansen coin in the current highest-rated PCGS Registry Set, and it surpasses almost all other examples. Original copper-orange luster adorns satin surfaces, and sharp devices and bold lettering denote an early die state. A few microscopic pepper specks in the left obverse field serve merely to differentiate this piece from its few known peers."
