Description
1914-D Cent, MS65
Appealing Full Red Surfaces
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.
