Low Mintage 1914-D Lincoln Cent, MS65 Red

1914-D 1C MS65 Red PCGS. The 1914-D Lincoln cent is a low mintage issue that did not attract much attention until the 1930s, when coin boards and folders became popular. Few examples were saved from the original mintage of 1.2 million pieces and Mint State examples were extremely difficult to locate when collectors belatedly recognized the importance of the issue. Specimens with fully Red surfaces, such as the present coin, are especially elusive. The surfaces of this coin radiate blazing mint red color, much lighter and more evenly tinted than usually seen. The strike is full, with slight evidence of metal flow in the fields. Both obverse and reverse are almost carbon-free, extremely unusual on Mint State specimens of this date. Overall eye appeal is stunning. Population: 55 in 65 Red, 3 finer (11/09).
